WItch is why it is three day event. the three catagories are. show jumping. also known as jumpers. Witch is judged on how eficiantly you can complete the course.  So it is based off the time and the amount of faults you get. the next section or test is dressage. Dressage is a a sieries of movements performed by horse and rider from memory. in competition there are also set tests that must be performed by horse and rider. These tests are scored from 1 as the lowest and 10 as the highest. The last is cross country. Also known as hunter trials. the goal in this is to get as litle time and jump faults as possible.
