TRAINING

Fun and useful!

All training sessions are relaxed affairs geared to the needs of the horse and rider partnership. If you do want to join in but can’t do the date get in touch and we’ll be happy to make alternative arrangements. Don’t forget that you need to wear hard hats (for everything) and body protectors for cross country (whatever the level.)

 
IMPORTANT NOTICE

Back protectors should be worn at all times for X country riding and are recommended for show jumping. Hats must be manufactured to specification EN1384, PASO15, or prefixed with ASTM or SEI as the minimum standard allowed. BSEN14572 is the next standard to be introduced, which is intended to run alongside EN 1834.( Greater protection is considered to be offered by prefixes PAS & ASTM.)
When mounted, everyone must wear a correctly adjusted and fastened hat.

We are happy to look at other venues of course and welcome any ideas you may have or if any of you have facilities indoor or outdoor.

Practice sessions available by arrangement at any of these venues all of which are chosen for ease of access and friendly low-key atmospheres. Other venues are available too for cross country and show jumping. If you contact Diana Blackman about either on 01424 813465 she can understand what height you want to do and can then choose the right venue to suit your need.
The club will organise other trainers if there is sufficient interest. Perhaps you are at a higher level and want to get the views of judges to progress further? Or maybe you’d like some practice at larger venues to get your horse used to the 'scaries'??
