Duty days: You can use the search function on the top of each page to search for your name and find out quickly which duty days you have been assigned. If you can’t make your duty day, it is your responsibility to find someone to stand-in for you or swap days with you.

A reminder to all those making advance entries/payments

When making advance entries for competitions, please make sure that you receive confirmation from the organiser that they have your entry.

For dressage competitions, advance payment is now required and can be made via PayPal (instructions for doing so here) or cheque. Note particularly that you should enter as normal with the organiser and get confirmation of your entry before making your PayPal entry, to ensure that there is still room in the class you wish to enter.

Don’t forget our next competition is the dressage on Sunday 2nd March; get your entries in to Andrea asap!
