COMPETITIVE CLASSES

Regional Circuit | Off-Circuit | Training & Rec Classes

Competitive classes may form part of our Regional Circuit (see list in Regional Circuit Regulations) and may include recreational or training classes. Events including these types of classes must adhere to MAHDS Rules & Requirements for Participants and for Event Organizers. Results from competitive classes are eligible for inclusion in our annual points calculations if they are part of a Regional Circuit (dryland or snow). MAHDS will assist with logistics and compliance, ensuring event organizers are well-supported and set up to provide the best quality of events in our region.
