Following on from reading the posts on Kits – Competition Disillusions post
Does anyone else think it would be nice if BE could run an end of Season Team event simular to the JRN series (sorry ON18) or BE100JR but for us oldies
Ok maybe not viable in the sense of having a specific section at Qualifiers/ Selection events as it would probably be huge
But a scenario where you sign up/ register with the Regional selector stating which horse you wish to be considered to join the team with; you go out and compete that season and come September you forward your BE Results page to the selector and they choose a team to go forward to represent the region at the end of the season and its judged off results/ consistency.
Maybe with conditions such as those aiming for BE100 style team must not have competed/ qualified for the Badminton Grassroots finals or have any Novice level points
And for the Novice horses and riders (either) not to have done CIC*** or Advanced ???
And obviously open to anyone aged over 18
Just following on from what seems like a common trend that people find that they have nothing to aim for within BE
And I must admit I do have green envy when I see Junior Reports on here (and its not just because there young ) but for the opportunities they all have in training and competition
Also BS do something similar (scope team event) and I *think* BD do so surely it could be possible and wouldn’t cost too much (might take some time choosing a team if it was possible) especially if it was to run at a fixture that already was running – it would just be 2 extra sections
Like I said just a musing but interested what people think and if I should put it forward to the big guys at BE
