Our shows are aimed at the grass roots local competitor, equine or human, just beginning their showing experiences. We try to give our competitors practice under professional judges who will encourage the new partnerships with comments if requested. Nothing gives our Committee greater pleasure than to watch new partnerships develop and compete successfully at larger more prestigious shows than ours at a later date.

The Cadnam Show Committee were delighted with the interest generated at our 2007 Spring Show where forty-one turnouts took part. Our second show was less well supported as we were forced to postpone the Summer Show until September due to pre-booked competitors from the North of the County having to travel through the foot and mouth outbreak area in north of Hampshire.

This years 15th June British Driving Society Affiliated Spring Show will give competitors an outing before Smiths Lawn the following week. However both driving shows are aimed at the professional and grass roots or local competitor, equine or human, at the top just beginning their showing experiences. Two rings operate independently in the morning one aimed at the more experienced competitor whilst the other caters for the less practised. Ring one offers Private Driving enthusiasts an Amateur, Novice, over 13.2 and 13.2 and under private driving classes, plus a country vehicle, native, hackney, trade and commercial classes. Whilst Ring two offers a novice whip, novice horse or pony, veteran horse or pony, junior whip and coloured driven as a single or multiple. During the lunch break six in hand classes, two Concours D’Elegance classes, two turnout to make the best Snap-shot classes and a ride and drive class keep the stewards busy. The BDS judges return from lunch to judge classes for two and four wheel vehicles. The Private driving section is a Victoria Food Championship qualifier. The British Driving Society offer their champion and Reserve rosette and all six sections offer super sponsors sashes to the Champions and Reserves.

Spectators are very welcome, there is no admission charge and we offer several different types of catering facilities. There is always plenty of driving minded people to swop information with. Last year we were lucky enough to have three BDS Area Commissioners on the showground. Terry Barrett drove up from Somerset, Mrs. Honeybourne journeyed us from the Isle of Wight and our own Roger Page from Hampshire.
The Cadnam Show Committee look forward to seeing you competing or as a spectator at one of our driving shows this year.
