Cheshire Shield Horse Trials and Area 5 Qualifier: Sunday 6th July, Somerford Park Farm

Please find attached the Schedule and Entry Form for the above event.

This year’s competition not only includes the 2014 Area 5 qualifier but also sections for Riding Club members in all classes. It is therefore expected that the demand for places will be very high and entries will need  to be submitted as early as possible.

Pony Club Branches wishing to enter teams are able to leave team selection almost until the last minute. All riders/branches should submit entries for individuals by the closing date of Monday 23rd June and team selection from those individual entries does not need to be notified (by email would be preferred) until Monday 30th June.

It is important, however, that all riders have entered by 23rd June, regardless of whether or not they are to be included in a team. 

Please use a separate entry form for each rider/horse combination entry.
