# Equestrian at the 2008 Summer Paralympics – Team

The team championship, para-equestrian dressage event at the 2008 Summer Paralympics was decided by tests ridden at Hong Kong Olympic Equestrian Centre. Each rider performed two tests, the Team Test on September 7 and the Individual Championship Test on September 8–9 (for which individual medals were also awarded). Team scores were the sum of the best 3 Team Tests and best 3 Championship Test (not necessarily the same 3 riders).
