I was getting my horse ready to affiliate this year and therefore join BD but have been so put off of the new structure and how complex it is I am actually holding off doing it.

So much more straightforward; I personally am put off affilliating again as the structure has become too complicated and it's taken all the fun out of it.

I thought I understood the new levels when first introduced but now it's been changed (again) I'm not so sure!

The new system appeared to benefit me and my peers to start with but I just can't get my head round it any more, it fries my brain

Much fairer system than the present one. The silver section is a joke when you see who can compete in it. It makes you not want to bother as you know you don't stand a chance of being placed. So it becomes a waste of money entering classes

I no longer have motivation to compete and this is the first year in 15+ that I have qualified for the regionals (3 classes) and won’t be going as there is no point! Sad times :-(

The new system is far too complicated. I don't think the silver section is allowing grass roots riders to progress and I feel very intimidated by the whole system

Old system was fairer, the silver section is a complete joke and makes competing a complete waste of time & money
