Our Working Equitation Training Competition will focus on two phases - the ‘Ease of Handling’ and speed phases. These phases require the horse and rider to negotiate a series of obstacles, such as a gate, bridge, slalom poles, figure of 8 barrels, small jump etc. The Ease of Handling round focuses on the correct approach to, completion of and departure from each of the obstacles. The speed round, as the name suggests, is based on speed, with time penalties given for non-completion of any obstacles.
There will be a guided course walk of the obstacles for all riders taking part in the competition.
The training competition will be split into the following sections:
Class 1 – Walk & Trot
Class 2 – Novice
Class 3 – Inter B
Our judge for the competition will be Sharlotte Hughes from Saddle Up Coaching, who is an ABWE approved instructor. (If you’d like to get some practice in before the show, Sharlotte is running an clinic for us at Woodington Training Centre on 12th July – see CRC events page to book.
The competition will be run under ABWE rules. Please check the rules here:
