BRC CLASSES ONLY
All entrants must pay a prelim entry of £52 per team or £13.50 per individual to British Riding Clubs at least 21 days before the date of the qualifier (above). Entry forms can be found on the BRC website for postal entries www.britishridingclubs.org.uk or online entries can be made via the prelim website https://brc.bhs.org.uk/login?referral=%2Fselect . Late prelim entries may be accepted at the discretion of the organiser with a late surcharge of £20 per team and £10 per individual, if there are sufficient spaces (payable to BRC HQ). Late entries cannot be guaranteed therefore must not be paid for until approval from the organiser has been sought.

If the date of the qualifier is cancelled for any reason, the close of prelim entry will remain. However, if the qualifier is moved more than 21 days later, entries will be re-opened but late entry fees cannot be refunded. Eligibility will be approved at the original close of prelim entry.

Hats
All hats must have a visible aqua BRC hat tag in place before they are used for warming up and competing, to show that it meets the current safety standards. There will be a trained official available on the day to do this for you if your hat does not currently have one. For up to date hat rules please see the current BRC Handbook.

Body Protectors
A body protector is obligatory in all cross-country competitions and is strongly recommended in show jumping competitions. A BETA Level 3 displaying either a Purple 2009 label or Blue 2018 label must be worn. Body protectors should be fitted and worn as per the manufacturer’s instructions. The up to date BETA list of body protectors can be obtained from www.beta-uk.org.

Riders wearing Exo Body Cage with a 2000 purple label will be permitted. The competitor must inform the secretary at all events.

Medical armbands
Medical armbands are mandatory for any type of cross-country competition. These must be worn on the arm and not on the leg. They should be filled in with the relevant competitor’s details. Checks will be carried out in the collecting ring.
