COMPETITION FORMAT FOR 2014
Working Equitation Hawkesbury to Hunter will run four competitions in 2014. Broad sashes will be awarded for champion and reserve champion at each competition and ribbons to fifth place in each phase. These competitions will have an accumulative point score, culminating in an annual HIGH POINTS CHAMPION PERPETUAL TROPHY for each competition level. This is to be engraved and returned after twelve months. Trophies to third place will be given to keep. All members of WEGBI affiliated clubs are invited to compete and are eligible for sashes and ribbons on the day, however, the perpetual trophies will be awarded to H2H members only. Levels as follows -
• INTRODUCTORY
• PRELIMINARY
• INTERMEDIATE

• Juniors are under 14 and young riders are 15 -18. They can ride in any level, however their points will be scored within their age group.
• Competitions will be run under the official WEGBI rule book, which should be available prior to first comp.

What is Working Equitation?
Working Equitation is a fun way to train seriously! It comprises four different phases based on skills and horsemanship derived “from the field”. These phases are Dressage, Ease of Handling over obstacles, obstacles at speed and cattle work. Due to a lack of cows, our club does not include the cattle phase.
