Northcoast Active-riders Group (Nags)

Northcoast Active-riders Group (Nags) NAGs is a friendly dressage-focussed group on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland. Join the club or enter events via Nominate. Inquiries: [email protected]

EA affiliated, we run Official & Unofficial dressage competitions, clinics, & protocol days. We cater for all levels or riders - from those beginning their Dressage careers to those riding Grand Prix at National & International level. The club runs Social Training days from February to November, aimed at providing a fun safe environment for everyone. Our Associate Championships are run in May each year, giving even our riders that don't want to ride at an Offical level a chance to win some great prizes (and its a lot of fun!)

There are 2 Official events each year, culminating in the Sunshine Coast Unofficial Dressage Championships run in September. Nags has been running for 40+ years, with many of our founding members still taking an active role in the club.

This year’s freestyle class is dedicated to Lea Bierman.

Lea was one of our founding members, and music was always part of how she rode. This freestyle portion of the day is in her honour.

We’ve added “Ride to Music” tests at Prep, Prelim and Novice level, no choreography required! Ride your regular test with your favourite music playing in the background.

Not ready for music yet? The usual Prep, Prelim and Novice tests are still running alongside them.

However you want to ride on the day, there’s a place for you.

Thanks so much to Melinda from EQ for organising the Northcoast Active-riders Group (Nags) Behind the Scenes CDI tour today, lots of amazing insights into all the expertise and work that goes into delivering a major equestrian event - we met FEI Steward Anthony, competitor Jessica Dertell and her very friendly stallion Kilimanjaro all the way from Victoria, stable manager Cheryl, office manager Lisa, a real DJ in the announcers box, FEI Vet Derek Major and attending West Vets team members. We even bumped into NAGs member Cheryl Lawrence returning from her Advanced class and members Sage Sharpe Dressage and Harper Carter Sara Carter listening attentively to the Brett Parbery Masterclass featuring yet another NAGs member GP rider Ellyn Joy Parker. So exciting we even had a glass of Moet for lunch 😁 Thanks EQ for the great experience. Petra von Natzmer Chris Campbell

Lea Bierman was a founding committee member of NAGs, helping to establish NAGs and create the culture we have today. She dedicated countless hours and many years to growing the love of our sport on the Sunshine Coast and in Queensland. The recipient of many accolades, including the 2019 Equestrian QLD Service to Sport Award, Lea’s contribution to dressage and equestrian sport was enormous. Sadly, we lost Lea July 2022.

There was nothing Lea loved more than dressage and dancing, so we are combining the two in honour of her!

Email us for copy of the Prep and Preliminary Freestyle Tests, the EA Freestyles are on the EA site but if you can’t find them just email [email protected] and we will email copies to you.
