Any registered horse is eligible for the classes, according to their Notional (Actual winnings for Grade A horses) winnings. If a junior is competing the horse they themselves must registered as a Pony Associate member before they compete but otherwise are eligible for the same classes as the horse, unless specifically stated otherwise in the schedule.
A Pony is eligible to ride any registered pony in junior competitions. A Pony Associate can compete any registered pony in Pony competitions and any registered horse in Senior competitions.
Pony Associate membership is available from the beginning of the year in which the age of 12 is reached.
An associate member is for anyone from the beginning of the year in which they reach 17 until the end of the year in which they reach 18. They are only eligible to compete registered horses in senior classes and can register horses or ponies in their ownership. They do not require a parent of guardian but still need to produce a copy of their birth certificate upon initial registration.
If a member is 16yrs or under they require a parent or official guardian to join along with them, as a Non Jumping member.
Yes, the form can be signed by the payee, parent or guardian, on behalf of the member.
Unless a ticket to ride has been paid for on the day of competition, both horse and rider must be currently registered. If the horse has a different owner from the rider, they must also be currently registered.

When registering a new horse we need to be sent ORIGINAL documentation for identification purposes. This must include any breeding and more importantly a sketch markings page that has been SIGNED AND STAMPED ON THE PAGE by a vet. This can be in the form of a passport, vetting certificate, JMB certificate etc.
No, a horse is only eligible for age classes if British Showjumping has seen and accepted verified breed documents and age documents.
If we have not received acceptable identification for any new registrations we issue a 28 registration card. Within the 28 day period given we must recieve acceptable, original identification for the horse. Once this has been received we can issue a 12 month card, from the date of registration.
Any documentation that we receive is photocopied and filed and also identified as being seen by us, by having a British Showjumping stamp embossed in an appropriate place in the passport. The passport may not be acceptable for identification (maybe hasn’t been stamped and signed by a vet on the markings page) but we still emboss the document.
A vet can see the passport alongside the animal, confirm that the markings are correct for that animal and sign and stamp the page, which then needs to be returned to the office (the original, even if this same document has already been seen). Alternatively if the owner has a vet certificate or another markings drawing completed by a vet, this can be sent instead
No, direct debits are paid in full, as with other payment methods, but once set up work can be completed on the account without payment being sent in.
Yes, the membership is renewed automatically once the direct debit has been set up. Any membership linked to that account will be renewed without confirmation being required. Horse renewals are renewed automatically if a consent form has been completed.
A reminder for any membership or registration that is due to expire is sent to the owner/member 3 weeks before the expiry date. Because of address changes and any postal problems we state the expiry date on your membership and registration cards so you are aware of this date, even if the renewal does not reach you in the post.
A Ticket to Ride allows an unregistered horse/ rider or both to compete in affiliated competitions without paying a subscription. A small charge over and above the normal entry fee is charged per class and an unlimited amount can be used each year. Stallions are not eligible to compete on a ticket.
To jump on a ticket you simply arrive and enter at your show as usual and state clearly that you are riding on a ticket, you can then purchase your ticket when you enter.
