Team
Endurance Event
hosted
and organised by ENDURANCE GB
Endurance
GB will be hosting and organising a series of qualifying team endurance
rides that will culminate in a final competition. This
Team Event is an opportunity for you to come along and try endurance riding
in the company of your friends and club members.
Teams
can be made up of three to six riders.
Are
there any special requirements?
You
don’t need any special equipment, particular breed or type of horse to get
started, just you, your horse and your normal riding tack.
Qualifying
rides are about 32km (20 miles) and are in beautiful areas of the country,
very often over private land. There are 12 qualifying rides in all, with at
least one in each of the Sport England Regions.
The
Final will be held in September at Southwell Racecourse in Nottinghamshire,
where the finalists will have the opportunity to complete the competition by
riding down the all weather track to the finish line.
Some Chobham club members have
expressed an interest in creating a team already so if you would
like to join in, please let one of the committee
members know and we can set up an initial meeting to discuss.
Alternatively,
if you wish to set up you own team, details of your nearest Qualifier, the
rules of the competition, how to enter and some tips on how to prepare for
the event, are available on the endurance GB website -
