A huge HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and your families and four legged friends! 😊
It's true to say 2017 was a bumper year for WBRC yet again and all the signs are that 2018 will be very much the same. The diary is packed already with LOTS of exciting clinics and competitions but... don't forget that if you want to join us at anything from today, you need to have renewed your membership. It's a bargain at just £25 for the year (prices held from 2017) and is super quick and easy to do using WebCollect. If you have not paid your membership online before, you will need to select join rather than renew.
Here are just a few important bits for this month's update. Keep up to date by joining our facebook page and all clinics/training/events/competitions can be signed up for via WebCollect. You will find the full calendar of events here too... below is just a snap shot!
Please also note that as we start the New Year there are a couple of changes to the hat and body protector regulations (see downloads below) - please check these carefully to make sure you are "legal". You will be checked at all BRC competitions and we strongly advise that you are correctly equipped for all WBRC activities.

If you are thinking of competing for WBRC this year in any of the area qualifiers then below are few points you need to be aware of. Any queries can be answered by team managers or you can look at the BRC handbook online for all the rules. We hope to enter everyone that wants to have a go.
- New aqua hat tags needed for 2018 (see download above)
- 2000 label body protectors no longer acceptable - must be 2009 (see download above)
- Eligibility of horses and riders - table in handbook and attached to entry section on WebCollect
- 2018 membership must be paid before close of prelim entry
- Prelim entries close three weeks before competition but team managers will need you to have done your entry on WebCollect at least a month before qualifiers to allow us time to put together our prelim entry to HQ. We cannot enter you until entry is paid, but if you have to withdraw before prelim entry then a refund is available, after prelim entry date refunds only available if we can fill space.
- Horse's flu vax records must be correct. Need to show initial course of jabs and then annual boosters always within a year. Our flu vax pre-check database is held by Karen Woolnough and if your horse has not been registered previously on here then Karen will need scan or photo of pages showing horse's passport name, passport number and all flu vax. If your horse has been previously registered and checked with Karen then please remember to send photo of page showing annual booster as soon as this is done. Each line must be both signed and stamped by vet.
- Please let team managers know if you are not likely to be available for championship if lucky enough to qualify. We will still enter those that are not committed to championship dates as area organisers need the entries.
