The individual championship test, grade III, para-equestrian dressage event at the 2024 Summer Paralympics was held on 3 September, 2024 at the Palace of Versailles in Paris.[1]
The competition was assessed by a ground jury composed of five judges placed at locations designated E, H, C, M, and B. Each judge rated the competitors' performances with a percentage score. The five scores from the jury were then averaged to determine a rider's total percentage score.[2]
Grade III[3] riders are described by the IPC as "athletes [that] have severe impairments in both legs with minimal or no impairment of the trunk or moderate impairment of the arms and legs and trunk."[4]
Riders performed one test apiece. In addition to being an event in its own right, the Championship test was the qualification round for the Freestyle event, with the top eight riders progressing to the second final. 13 Riders started the event.[5] [6]
