Entries Close 28 March or before if full.
The Course is made up of SJ & simulated XC fences with an optimum time & no style marks. Larger arenas may use secured XC portables. Riders will jump a series of show jumps and then proceed immediately into the XC phase which is run on an optimum time of 350- 375m/m.
NSEA Eventers Challenge Rules for Scoring 2021
The intention of these rules is to reward riders who have a clear round and to penalise riders who have jumping penalties or who are significantly faster than the Optimum Time. Where there are several competitors with a clear round, then the nearest to the Optimum Time will win, rewarding an appropriate judgement of pace around the course.
EC1) Open to Teams and Individuals
• Riders will jump a course of 5-8 show jumps and then proceed immediately into the XC phase of 8-15 simulated XC fences, depending on the size of the arena
• The speed for the XC phase will be between 320m/m to 375m/m depending on the size of the arena – smaller arena = tighter turns which slow you down. A larger arena with flowing lines will ride on a quicker time. The speed for each class will be given in the schedule or on the noticeboard at the event. Times will be recorded to one-hundredth of a second if the timing equipment allows.
• NSEA/BE Eventing Rules for tack and rider equipment for XC.
• There will be no style mark. No age restriction on the mini (70/75) class.
• Top two teams and Individuals at each height to qualify for the NSEA Eventers Challenge Championship to be held at Hickstead in May.
EC2) Dress: XC colours, body protectors are compulsory. Hair must be above collar length, long hair to be kept in place in a hair net. Rider must wear BE approved skull caps, no fixed peak SJ hats.
EC3) The competitor with the fewest penalties wins. In the event of a tie, the competitor closest to the optimum time will be the winner. In the team competition, the total of the best three scores is used to place the team. The combined difference from the Optimum Time of the 3 best scores is used to break any ties.
EC4) The top 2 teams/individuals at each qualifier will qualify for the NSEA Eventers Challenge Championship.
EC5) Organisers are asked to ensure that the XC phase includes elements that give a choice about the track and therefore the time taken. Organisers are asked not to display a clock showing the time taken visible to the rider to as the aim is to educate riders to ride by feel.
Penalties are awarded as follows
Knockdown (to include SJ and knockable xc fences) 4 penalties
1st Refusal 4 penalties
2nd Refusal 8 penalties
3rd Refusal Elimination
Rider Fall Elimination
Horse Fall Elimination
Starting before the bell, retaking an obstacle already jumped, error of course or outside assistance Elimination

NSEA Coronavirus Protocol - Autumn 2020
HEALTH CHECKS
1. If any competitor, or anybody in their household, is showing symptoms of Coronavirus, they must not attend any NSEA event. On the morning of the competition, prior to departure, there should be the following simple health check conducted:
1. Take the temperature of everybody in the household. If anybody has a temperature of over 37.8 degrees, then please seek medical advice and do not attend.
2. Is anybody in the household quarantined because of foreign travel to a country which is not exempt? If so, please do not attend.
3. If anybody in the household has any of the following symptoms then please seek medical advice, and do not attend:
1. A persistent cough;
2. A loss of taste or smell;
3. A temperature (see 1(1) above)
REGIONAL LOCKDOWNS OR REGULATIONS
2. If any competitor lives, or stables their horse, in an area which has been made the subject of a specific geographical lockdown then please do not attend an event.
3. If the event is located within an area which is subject to specific conditions, we will review those, and may cancel an event at short notice if required to do so.
4. If the competitor’s school is located in an area which is subject to specific conditions, even if the competitor lives outside that area, if they have physically attended the school in the two weeks prior to the competition, they should not attend.
5. For competitors who live near borders between England and Wales, or England and Scotland, please be mindful of the potentially differing rules once you cross a border, and familiarise yourself with those rules.
AT THE SHOW CENTRE
6. One person per squad should take charge of ensuring social distancing to ensure that everybody keeps their distance. They should familiarise themselves with one-way systems and protocols specific to each venue which will be available. Regular reminders will need to be given as it is easy to forget things when both on, and off, a horse. Remember to avoid sharing equipment. Household groups - or bubbles - should be maintained when moving around and please follow show centre instructions. Check in advance, for example, to see what, if any, catering facilities are available and plan accordingly.
7. Avoid touching surfaces like jumps or rails, and follow instructions given by show centres.
8. No spectators or supporters will be permitted. Just one parent/carer per competitor is encouraged wherever possible.
9. Do not forget to use hand sanitiser on arrival. Show centres will be providing this, but if there are shortages it is obviously sensible to bring your own which should be used regularly. Practise good hand-hygiene as often as possible throughout the day; show centres will all have soap and hot water available.
10. Any person at the event who becomes unwell should immediately isolate with their household, and if necessary should seek medical attention from the Paramedic team in attendance at NSEA events. The household with the unwell person in should leave the show centre to return home.
11. Please do not stay longer than is necessary for the competition. ARRIVE, COMPETE, LEAVE, in order to minimise the number of people at a show centre at any one time. All results will be published online.
BREACHES OF THE PROTOCOL
12. If breaches of this protocol are brought to the attention of show organisers, they will be permitted to demand the entire school’s team leave the show centre, and may eliminate competitors. The NSEA will then consider whether to allow that school or competitor to compete in future competitions.
HEALTH CHECK BEFORE YOU LEAVE
ONE PARENT PER COMPETITOR WHERE POSSIBLE
KEEP YOUR DISTANCE - DON’T BURST YOUR BUBBLE
PRACTISE GOOD HAND HYGIENE
ARRIVE, COMPETE, LEAVE.
