FDRC RULES & REGS FOR QUALIFYING COMPETITIONS ENTRY FEES 2024
FDRC is one of a handful of clubs that does not expect members to pay the FULL entry free for a BRC qualifier and will subsidise your entry to represent the club.
To take part in a BRC qualifier either as a team member or individual, the fees below will apply to fully paid up members wishing to take part in a qualifier. If a member is then successful in getting through to the National Championships, the club will pay all of the entry fee and part or all of any overnight stabling fees.
If a member is unable to attend the competition, they have agreed to take part in, then we ask for the outstanding part of the entry fee to be paid. If a BRC event is cancelled, all paid fees will be returned to the member or held over until the event is re-scheduled.
Show Jumping classes - £15/class Dressage classes - £15/class
Combined Training/Arena Eventing etc - £25/class Eventing - £40/class
Combined Challenge - £35
Once a member has asked to take part in a BRC qualifier, the Team Manager will ask for you to complete the “Teams/Individual Application to Compete” form which can be downloaded from either Facebook, the club website or emailed to you direct. You will then need to make the necessary payment via My Riding Life. The form and payment MUST be received within 7 days of the close of the preliminary entries (as stated on the BRC Qualifier Schedule. This will allow the Team Manager time to check you are eligible to compete, come back to you with any queries and make up the necessary teams etc.
PLEASE EMAILYOUR COMPLETED FORM AND YOUR PASSPORT INFORMATION TO FAVERSHAMRIDINGCLUB@GMAIL.COM FOR THE ATTENTION OF THE RELEVENT TEAM MANAGER.
When competing on behalf of FDRC, ALL Team and Individual Members will be expected to use either an FDRC saddlecloth which can be provided, or to purchase a sew-on badge for your own saddlecloth.
Another possible reason for members & supporters not putting their name forward that they do not know exactly what the jobs they may be asked to do involve. So to that end we have put together a sheet which outlines briefly what you might be expected to do. If helpers have to independently travel a considerable distance to help at a qualifier, the club may be able to help towards the cost of fuel (mileage payment). Please talk to the Team Manager.

SUPPORTERS Teams are always happy to have Club supporters at a show - so feel free to come along and cheer on your team or do it while being a helper.
Please remember - if a Club cannot find the appropriate number of helpers for a team or individuals then the team/individuals CANNOT compete - so helpers are very important.
So in conclusion, we would love you to compete in a team and have an active policy in this club of giving everyone who would like to be in a team a chance to represent the Club, but we do need you to make sure before you say you will do a particular team competition that you are free on that day, have transport, an up to date passport & and can keep the date clear
