BD quest question

[wausten]

Hi all we are looking at getting a team together for BD team quest. I can’t work out from rule book whether you are allowed a team of mixed juniors and seniors?
We have at least 1 poss 2 juniors who we would like to include in our team. Anyone know if you can do this please?

In short you can have a mixed age group team but they must all put their entries into the senior section.
We did this on our team a few years ago. We had a 16yo riding with us. The difficulty was her mum wouldn't accept that she had to ride as a senior to count toward team scores so the rest of the team regularly had to speak to event organisers before or on the day to ensure the team was recorded properly. I think they thought by putting her in as a junior they would score her more favourably (which I wouldn't expect to happen at ANY BD). Juniors riding team quest at seniors can still enter my quest at juniors on the same day.
