British Riding Club’s Competitions Official Rules

The current British Riding Club’s Competitions Rulebook is available to view on this site in various sections. The rules are revised on an annual basis and come into effect from 1 January every year. Please note this is different to previous years where rules came into effect from 1 April.  

The Rulebook contains all the information you need to know to compete in official Riding Club competitions, including what you and your horse are allowed to wear, eligibility criteria and rules for all the different championships.

Please note the 2012 Rulebook has been published and is for sale in the BHS Bookshop. Future rule amendments enforced after the BRC rulebook has been printed will be indicated in red.

The 2012 Downgrading form can be found here. Please note if people wish to downgrade for a particular qualifier then the form must be with Jennie at j.pallett@bhs.org.uk no less than 14 days before the close of prelim entries to allow time for the form to be processed.
