Teams entries have to be registered with a prelim entry to the British Riding Clubs office 3 weeks before the closing date of the event; therefore we need your commitment often 4 to 5 weeks before the event takes place.
Details on all competition formats, eligibility, tack summary and vaccination rules can be found in the British Riding Club Handbook.
Pre-entry fees payable to BRC
BRC requires Riding Clubs to pay a pre-entry fee to confirm the number of members that will be competing.
For the 2025 year pre-entries are to be paid by competing members in the initial payment for entry, a refund will be made at a maximum of 50% of pre-entry fee once member has competed.
This is done at KRC committee's discretion with regard to any unlikely event.
Team Selection Process
For the benefit of any new members, we thought it would be useful to let you know how we make our team selections.
Our aim is always to enter as many teams as we can, rather than just individuals.
We will review all entries close to the deadline and if we think we need riders for particular classes we will put out a request on FB / by email.
If we have more riders than can fit in teams we will aim to give everyone who has expressed an interest a position in a team, especially where they have entered more than one class. But we do also want to be competitive and will take into account your results, past performance and any feedback from training sessions. Team commitment, support to the club and your completion of volunteer hours may also be included in our decision making.
In order to help us, we would be grateful for entries not to be left to the last minute and that you also include in the notes section whether would like to be considered for a team. Submission of vaccination and passport details is a pre-requisite for entry and we are looking at ways to make this a simpler process.
We look forward to receiving your entries for the upcoming events.
Cancellation policy for Area Qualifiers and National Championships
Cancelling your entry after the closing date will result in you losing 100% of your entry fee unless a replacement, eligible horse and rider can be found. In this case, KRC will refund your entry fee.
If you are unable to attend the competition due to your horse being lame, a refund will be given on production of a signed dated vet’s certificate.
