I have just seen this article via twittereventing on FB.

I'll admit, I haven't been a BE member for 5yrs and aren't likely to be any time soon (lack of horsepower) but still follow eventing as I loved it when I was able to take part. So much has changed since I last evented (unaff in 2018) and this last year has been a sad one from my perspective with so many cancellations due to lack of entries. What are peoples thoughts on the proposals by BE? I get why they are suggesting scrapping the ballot, but I also think this was a major benefit of being a member, as well as helping balance cash flow etc (e.g. entries open date vs ballot date vs payday). It will be interesting to see what happens next season...
