SHOW JUMPING 2012

DEAR ALL,

I look forward to see lots of you jumping in the near future, I hope the points below will help you. I am delighted that Di Cheeseman has kindly volunteered to help me with the administration for Show Jumping, this should help with future planning and the entry system, giving me more time to focus on training sessions with children and selection of teams/riders.

PLEASE NOTE THE NEW ENTRY SYSTEM EXPLAINED BELOW DOES NOT APPLY TO THE CRAWLEY AND HORSHAM SHOWJUMPING AT SANDS FARM FEB 14th AND 15th. PLEASE CONTINUE TO SEND CHEQUES TO ME (Caroline Martin). Please refer to the email sent by The Pony Club 24th Jan 2012.

Your children need to be seen jumping if not known to myself or a designated trainer before entering a team.

You MUST please buy a Show Jumping Rule book, so you know the rules!! Available from me (Caroline Martin) £3 each.

You will be receiving a list of competition dates via e mail from Di Cheeseman. Each competition will have a closing date clearly stated on the list. Cheques must be received BEFORE the closing date stated on the list so teams can be organised well in advance of the competition date.

Cheques need to be made payable to Old Surrey and Burstow Hunt Pony Club and sent to Diane Cheeseman, 6 Edgar Close, Worth, Crawley, West Sussex, RH10 7RF. Please write on the back of each cheque rider’s name, pony/horse’s name, competition date, class you would like to enter. If you wish to enter both the individual and team event then PLEASE can you send 2 separate cheques .Thanks.

Immediately after each closing date names will be forwarded to me (Caroline Martin) of riders who wish to be included in teams and whose entry cheque has been received! I will then advise you of team selection hopefully within a few days of our closing date.

Unfortunately there can be no guarantees of team selection, but the aim is to put into teams all riders who are keen to compete and who are of the required standard for the class . Unfortunately sometimes there may not be a place on a team as we do not always get the exact number of riders for teams of 4 (or 3 if necessary). We may also be limited by the host pony club in the number of teams we are allowed to send to a competition.

Most competitions hold individual classes as well. These can be for riders who want to do 2 classes, riders who do not make the team on that day and riders who do not want to jump in a team or who feel they are not ready to jump in a team.

You will need to look on the host PC website 2/3 days prior to a comp for your times to jump.

Please arrive at least 1 hour before you are due to jump, with time to course walk. Find me (Caroline Martin) or the designated team manager for that day, You will be advised if I am not able to attend.  I will be asking and assigning an appropriate person to course walk teams or individuals who need guidance. Pony Club dress code please.

PLEASE NOTE: The rules state the following: If you have any objections, complaints, concerns whilst at an event please bring them to me or the designated manager attending, not to the host PC please, this could result in elimination of rider or team. I/we will assess and deal with accordingly. 

TEAMS : PLEASE RESPECT THE DECISIONS MADE .

I WILL ALWAYS REPLY TO YOUR EMAILS, PLEASE REPLY TO MINE WHERE APPROPRIATE! See you all soon, advice re training will follow in due course.

Best regards

Caroline Martin ( NOT Mathews!)
