Happy New Year!

Posted on January 19, 2014 | in News

Happy New Year to all our members and friends!

We hope you have a great year competing with the club in 2014. We are changing from the usual winter and summer points systems to having an annual points system – running from January to December. The Points table for 2014 can be found under the Results section, along with tables from previous years.

Another new addition for 2014 will be a move to pre-payment for dressage entries and training. Entries will not be accepted without payment and options to pay will include cheque by post or PayPal. The dressage on Sunday 2nd February will run as previous with payment accepted on the day but subsequent competitions will have to paid for in advance.

Indoor Novice Show Jumping Qualifier

Posted on December 26, 2013 | in Results
Our wonderful showjumpers have once more put in 1st class performances at the recent indoor qualifier – a strong competition with 24 teams in all.
We sent 2 teams and both went really well. The Red Team of Sally Filby, Juliet Foden, Sally Vickers and Nicky Toomer (with Dave) had the odd fence down which put them just outside the rosettes, although Nicki’s double clear put her 6th individually – well done!
The Blue Team of Nicki (this time on Thomas), Libby Richards, Nicky Phillips and Sue O’Leary, finished on zero and contested a 4 way jump off. It was very close but with all four going clear again they won by just over a second to qualify for the Championships at Hartpury.
Yet more evidence of just how much fun team show jumping can be and we want more of you to join us!!!!!!

Rosette Recycling!

Posted on December 23, 2013 | in News

New for 2014 – Rosette Recycling!

We are going to introduce a new scheme in 2014 for all our regular competitions, whereby competitors who win a rosette and would like to recycle it can place it in a box on the day, to be re-used at the next competition. For every rosette recycled, 50p will be donated to the North West Air Ambulance. (We will review which charity we donate to each year).

Please note this will not apply to the Indoor Eventing as the rosettes there are unique to that competition.
