FDRC  RULES & REGS  FOR BRC QUALIFYING COMPETITIONS & ENTRY FEES for 2025
 
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 any of the BRC
Championships, the club will pay all your CHAMPIONSHIP entry fees and stabling (for one night unless you are
competing over two days, then we will cover the cost of two nights stabling).

If a member is unable to attend the competition and/or championships, that they have agreed to take part in, then we
reserve the right to 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 - £18/class Dressage classes - £18/class Combined Challenge - £45/class                
Combined Training - £30/class Arena Eventing etc - £30/class   One Day Eventing - £60/class      

We will also limit the number of entries to two classes per member per competition. If a member has more than one
horse and wishes to do additional classes (depending on the max allowed per combination in the Rule Book), this will
be for the member to pay both entry fee and prelim entry fee. However, the club will still cover the fees for attending
the Championships for which ever combination (or both) which qualify.

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 EMAIL YOUR 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. 

WE ALSO ASK THAT THOSE WHO RIDE AND REPRESENT THE CLUB, HELP AT AT LEAST ONE OTHER EVENT OF A
DISCIPLINE THAT THEY ARE NOT COMPETING IN, OR HELP FIND A HELPER.
