New for 2012! Unofficial inter-club team competition kindly supported by Digby Brown solicitors.
If your Riding Club has a number of eventers in the ranks why not get together and enter a team? We know that many riding club members also enjoy competing in BE events and this informal competition is a way to make the best of both. Each team needs one rider competing at Central Scotland Horse Trials in a BE80T class, one in a BE90 class, one in a BE100 class and a fourth team member competing at any of those levels. You'll all enter the event and compete in your class just as you would in any BE competition. BUT then once the BE results are known, we'll total the team scores (lowest three scores will count) and the team with the lowest score will walk away unofficial Scottish Riding Club Champions for 2012! Just enter the event as normal then ask your club to complete and submit the team entry form by 8 August. The full rules are set out below. Remember that you don't always have to be a full BE member to compete in a BE event. For the 80T class you will need a training ticket which only costs £10. For the BE90 and 100 classes you can compete on a day ticket. Full details on the BE website here. Then compete in your class, wait for the scores to be totalled and . . . . . who knows, you could be the champions. Good luck! A message from our sponsors

If there is still equality, the winning team will be the team with their aggregate time across Country closest to the optimum time for their classes. If there is still equality, the team with the best aggregate dressage scores will be the winners. If there is still equality, the result will be a tie 6.
