IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR ALL COMPETITORS
PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL ‘ATTENDED’ EVENTS FROM NOW UNTIL THE END OF JUNE 2020 ARE EITHER CANCELLED OR POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE DUE TO THE CURRENT SITUATION WITH COVID-19
A notice from the British Equestrian Federation….
The British Equestrian Federation (BEF) has urged riders not to “add to the burden” of the emergency services and stay out of the saddle amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The update today (27 March) goes further than earlier advice by the BEF on Tuesday (24 March) which advised riders to avoid “all organised equine activity”. The federation has also advised to avoid hacking out.
The BEF statement said the government had not issued any restrictions on riding – but the federation urged everyone to “carefully consider the risks and what is ‘essential’ – and not ride”.
“The emergency and health services are working at full capacity to combat the virus and as a community we shouldn’t add to that burden,” said the statement.
“If you choose to ride, we strongly suggest avoiding activity with heightened risk and keeping to your own property.”
VACCINATIONS
With regards to the ‘Equine Flu’ problem the Committee has agreed that ALL horses and ponies attending ODRC Shows and Clinics/Rallies need to have up to date 12 month flu vaccinations. If your horse has had to re-start his jabs then he will need to have received the first 2 in order to attend. RANDOM SPOT CHECKS will now take place at all our shows. You will be required to produce your horse’s passport, which will be checked against the horse. Failure to produce the passport or a finding of outdated vaccinations will result in you being asked to leave. We apologise for any inconvenience.
CLINIC & COMPETITION ENTRIES
Please note that FULL payment will be required at the time of booking for all clinics/rallies. Without full payment your space will not be secured.
LATE ENTRIES
It has been noted that there is a considerable increase in the number of people making late entries for shows/classes that have a cut off date. All entries made after the cut off date will only be accepted if space permits and a late entry surcharge of £5 will be added to the original entry fee. Please accept that there is a cut off date/time for a reason – this is to enable us to administer the event properly and ensure we can run it at all – late entries make this very difficult for us and we all volunteer to help run your Club so please respect this.
All ODRC Show Jumping and Dressage Shows are now CRICKLANDS QUALIFIERS
