Show Jumping Teams Information

Show Jumping Teams Information

We need members to volunteer themselves for the forthcoming season of Area Qualifier competitions. Details of competitions and venues will be posted on the website as and when they become available.

If you are interested in representing South Brent Riding Club at British Riding Clubs events, here is some further information.
There are opportunities to compete at different levels, depending on the horse and rider's experience.

Training sessions will be run specifically for team members and those hoping to represent the club in competition. If you are interested in representing the Club at area show jumping competitions, please contact Andrea Newton.

All members who wish to represent the club in a team or individual competition will be required to pay their own entry fees and traveling expenses. The Club will pay the affiliation fee to BRC on team members’ behalf.
Members should be aware that they will be expected to be prepared to travel to the Championships or Finals if they qualify.
