Friday 12 March 2010

Britain's leading rider Ben Maher has been nominated for three different categories at next month’s glittering annual Awards Ball hosted British Showjumping at the Hilton Metropole, NEC on the 6th April 2010.

With Ben Maher’s career soaring in such a meteoric way, it comes as no surprise that he has been nominated for three different categories. The Awards Ball which has quickly become a key event in British Showjumping’s social diary and is heavily attended not only by those within the sport but by those that follow and support the sport as spectators.

Contesting the title of Leading International Horse/Rider combination with his consistent Robin Hood W, Ben is also challenging the Riders Rider and Personality of the Year award titles on offer. “It’s always great to have your achievements recognised and be nominated for one award. To be nominated for three is just superb and I’m really pleased that not only myself, but my owners Michael and Emma Philips alongside the rest of the team supporting me have received such acknowledgement” commented Ben.

With eleven awards on offer, many of Great Britain’s top riders are expected to attend and a full list of the Awards and the nominee’s for each category will be issued shortly. The Awards Ball supports the GB competition framework with all funds being re-invested back into the sport, so if you are able to attend please do purchase a ticket and join them for an evening that not only see’s the Awards being presented but includes a four-course meal followed by dancing to a live band until the early hours.

Five hundred guests are already confirmed but there are still some tickets available should you like to attend. Tickets are £80 per person and can be purchased individually, in pairs or in numbers up to a table of ten by calling 02476 698806 or online at www.britishshowjumping.co.uk .
