The Far South Coast Dressage Association was founded in 1987 by a group of local riders who were interested in dressage and wanted to learn more about the art of riding. This prompted the first protocol day which proved very popular and led to our Club’s first dressage competition.
The Club has continued to grow over the years and now offers regular competition days. There are protocol days, training events and workshops held throughout the year, mainly at Cobargo Showground and Bemboka Showground.
