For your team, you will require: one rider and one horse/pony, one handler and one dog. The rider is to complete the course of small jumps on a horse/pony first. Upon crossing the finish line, they are to hand their whip to their team mate who will then complete the same course of jumps with a dog (on a lead). If a rider prefers to do both rounds themselves, they may do so and rather than passing their whip to their partner, they must exchange their horse/pony for the dog. The handover must be secure as a loose animal will result in the team being disqualified. Penalties will be awarded for a knockdown / refusal. Combined rounds against the clock, fastest double clear wins.

Prizes Members, competitors and friends are all invited to bring small (or large!) prizes, to be donated to the tombola and auction. In the past we have had some very generous gifts and, thanks to our kind supporters, have been able to raise hundreds of pounds through this event for our charity Veteran Horse Welfare which dedicated to the care and welfare of veteran horses and ponies. Prizes really can be anything you like from: unwanted gifts, chocolates, wine, cakes, horsey items, gift vouchers, pictures, experiences or even maybe a holiday! Each and every prize is very much appreciated. Please bring your prizes along to the VHS Show Office when you arrive where they will be put on display for all to see. Prizes will be split across both our tombola and auction events.

Tombola (To be drawn approx. 4pm on Saturday) This year we have changed the format of this so that this is not too late in the evening for our younger supporters who always love to be involved. We hope this change will suit everybody. Raffle tickets for the tombola will be on sale in the Show Office from Thursday through to 4pm on Saturday when the Tombola will be drawn. Winning tickets will be displayed on the prizes in the Show Office and these can be collected at any time after the draw, through to Sunday lunchtime. Please remember to check the Show Office opening hours. 21:00 Auction and Social Evening, to be held in the Main Arena Café / Bar area The Saturday Night Auction has now become a very popular part of the Championship weekend and gives everyone the opportunity to enjoy a fun and light hearted social occasion at the same time as raising vital funds for our charity. Everybody is welcome at this relaxed and friendly event, so come and join in the fun. This is always a popular night and although there is plenty of space in the bar area, if you are a bigger group wishing to share a table we advise you arrive in plenty of time. Following the auction many of our competitors stay on to enjoy the social atmosphere and enjoy a drink catching up with old friends and making new ones. The café will be serving food during the early evening and the bar will be open throughout the evening, until late. Please remember that it is not permissible to bring any alcohol into the buildings which has not been purchased on site.

2. The Veteran Horse Society will hold your information within our system for an indefinite period as VHS membership numbers are unique to each individual member rather than their horse/pony. Paperwork will be held for a maximum of 2 years in respect of National Veteran Championship entries.

3. The Veteran Horse Society may publish results from any/all classes held at the National Veteran Championships, including competitor’s names and their horse/pony names and ages and final positions. This data may be made public and shared with third parties for publication. Competitors consent to their data being shared for this purpose.

4. The Veteran Horse Society may publish photographs from the National Veteran Championships for publicity purposes and competitors consent to photographs of themselves and their horse/pony being used for this purpose.

GENERAL SHOW RULES 1. This show is run in accordance with Veteran Horse Society rules. Please refer to VHS Rulebook and also visit the VHS website where

All competitors are reminded that whilst the Show Secretary will make all reasonable effort to support individuals where classes have

clashed, it is ultimately the competitor’s responsibility to decide which class they will enter. Judges will be advised of the desire to accommodate all competitors but ultimately the judge will decide when to commence their class.

18. The organisers cannot be held responsible where a competitor has entered more than one class and a clash occurs. Whilst every reasonable effort will be made to allow competitors to compete in both classes, this may not always be possible. The judge’s decision is final.

How to Find Us - Maps & Directions

Address: Arena UK, Allington Lane, Allington, Grantham, Lincolnshire NG32 2EF

The venue requests that all competitors please use the A1 to access Arena UK.

There is direct access from the Gonerby Moor, North Grantham interchange on the A1 (Grantham Services). Follow signs to Equestrian Centre which is only approximately half a mile from the A1. The alternative route from the A52, through Sedgebrook and Allington is not suitable for horseboxes due to narrow roads and a (12ft) height restriction bridge. It is also a residential area and the residents would appreciate if the traffic flow coming through their villages could be reduced on show days.
