Show Jumping Teams

Dear Members

This year’s Area Show Jumping Qualifiers will be held at Towerlands, Braintree on Saturday 30th June 2007.

The club like to invite all prospective team members to attend a selection trial for this year’s teams, which will be the club’s show jumping competition at Bluegates Hall, Gt Bardfield on Sunday 27 May 2007.  If you would like to be considered for the club’s teams and will be attending the selection trial, please reply to this to let us know who to look out for.  If you would like to be considered for the club’s teams but are unable to attend the selection trial then please reply to this notice with full details of you and your horse/pony’s recent achievements (stating the height at which you regularly compete along with a detailed synopsis of your accomplishments) so that we can assess your suitability for inclusion on the teams.

The team competitions at the Qualifiers are as follows:

Junior Novice – fences 85cm-90cm (2’6”-2’9”)

Horses must not have won any money in BSJA or SJAI points in affiliated competitions, other than notional prize money gained in 70cm or 80cm classes held at BSJA into shows prior to the date of the close of preliminary entries and must not have won any BE or IHTS horse trial points nor have been placed 1st to 6th in any BE pre-novice event.

Junior Open – fences 95cm-100cm (3’0”-3’3”)

(Please note that Senior’s mounts must be 14.0hh or over)

  • Members who wish to be considered for the Senior and Junior Novice teams should be jumping the Intermediate at the Selection Trial.
  • Those who wish to be considered for the Senior Intermediate and Junior Open teams should be jumping the Open at the Selection Trial. 
  • Anyone wishing to be considered for the Senior Open teams should jump the Open at the Selection Trial but should also be competing at higher than this level outside of SWDRC competitions.

All horses and ponies competing at Qualifer competitions must have a 100% valid original flu vaccination certificate.  Please bring these with you to the Selection Trial for checking.

Details of certificate requirements can be found in the front of the omnibus schedule and in the teams section of the club’s website. http://www.swdrc.co.uk/05_teams/teams_2007.php

The Championships for these competitions are to be held at Lincoln Showground on 8th & 9th September 2007.  All members representing the club at the Qualifier competitions would be expected to be available for the Championships should they or their team qualify.

All team members are expected pay a £5 contribution towards their team’s entry fees.  Any member who fails to give their contributions to their team manager on the day of the competition will be invoiced later by the club.

The club is often required to steward at these events and should this be the case at this competition all team members will be expected to lend a hand, no matter how small, wherever possible.

We look forward to seeing some of you on 27th May.

Best regards

Suzannah Engelmann & Jo Wilkins

Senior & Junior Show Jumping Team Managers
