The new Club membership is aimed at grass roots competitors who feel comfortable jumping between 70cm to 1.00m. British Showjumping’s objective is to create a friendly and welcoming atmosphere where riders participate for points not prize money. Points will be allocated to the combination and accumulated for a Regional Championship. Riders do not have to compete in their own Region to accumulate points.
