  1. To be run under the rules as defined in the RDA Group and Competition Rulebook 2025, which can be accessed here: https://myrda.org.uk/runningyourgroup/national-championships/.
  2. Only groups registered with RDA UK as an Endurance Group can take part.
  3. All equines travelling to the event must have a valid passport from which the equine’s identification will be verified. The passport must contain all vaccination details which must be up to date, completely and clearly recorded, signed and stamped by a veterinary surgeon, who is not the owner of the animal. Passports will be checked on arrival and passports with missing, altered, unclear or incomplete vaccine records will not be accepted and entry to the event 
    may be refused.
    The equine must receive a primary course of two injections against Equine Influenza. For equines that started their vaccination course before 2024, vaccines need to have been given no less than 21 days and no more than 92 days apart (only these first two injections need to be given before the horse may compete). For equines that started a course of vaccinations after 1 January 2024, the interval between these two vaccines is required to be no less than 21 days and no more than 60 days.
    In addition, a third vaccination is to be given. For equines that started their vaccination course before 2024, the third vaccination must be given between 150 and 215 days after the date of the second injection. For equines that started a vaccination course after 1 January 2024, the third vaccination must be given no less than 120 days and no more than 180 days after the second injection of the primary course.
    Any equine that has previously had a compliant primary course of vaccines, and compliant subsequent boosters does not need to re-start the vaccination process. For any equine that has had the first or second vaccination in 2023, and received the second or third vaccination in 2024, either the old or new date range will be acceptable for subsequent injections in the primary course.
    Subsequent booster injections must be given at intervals of not more than one calendar year apart, commencing after the first booster injection.
    None of these injections can be given within the seven days before the day of the event.
    If your equine has not been vaccinated against equine influenza in accordance with the above requirements, it will not be permitted entry to the event. A representative from our Regional Vet team will be on hand to assist and answer any queries. Further information can be found here: https://myrda.org.uk/runningyourgroup/horses-and-rda/vaccinations/
  4. Each equine may only enter a maximum of four ridden classes including lead rein.
  5. All hats worn when mounted or by leaders and side walkers must be of current standard. (Current guidelines can be found here: https://www.myrda.org.uk/runningyourgroup/health-safety). All hats will be checked and tagged. It is the sole responsibility of riders/guardians to ensure that at all times while on horseback, they wear correctly fitted protective headgear and that chin straps must be securely fastened.
    Protective headwear constitutes a hat which meets one of the following standards: 
    • British PAS 015: 2011 - with BSI Kitemark or Inspec IC mark 
    • European VG1 - with BSI Kitemark or Inspec IC mark 
    • (BS) EN1384:2023 - with BSI Kitemarked or Inspec IC mark 
    • American ASTM F1163 2015 and 2023 - with the SEI mark. Please note that 2004a or 04a was withdrawn on 31 December 2023 and is no longer acceptable. 
    • SNELL E2016 and E2021 - with the official Snell label and number
  6. All leaders must be correctly trained with green cards, and wear a tagged hat and gloves. It is not currently mandatory for side walkers to wear a riding hat, but if they choose to do so, the hat must comply with the current standards listed above. All coaches/volunteers must wear a hat when mounted.
  7. If body protectors are worn, they must comply with current standards.
  8. Hi-Viz should be worn on horse, rider and any leaders or sidewalkers.
  9. On the day, each rider will be required to present themselves on their horse for a tack and equipment check at least 15 minutes before their allotted time.
