BSJA Question

[TheBlackMoth]

Can a 16 year old or 17year old do Junior BSJA.

Sorry I have read parts of the rule book but just can't find the answer to this.

Ponies can be competed BSJA by riders up until the end of the year in which they reach 16. So, if your birthday is 1 January or 31 December you're out of ponies in the same year.

I presume this is what you meant, rather than horse juniors, ie until the end of the year in which the rider is 18?

a 17 year can't do Junior BSJA they must do senior BSJA, a 16 year old can do junior BSJA on a pony 14.2hh and under

So if you are 17 this September, you can't do junior bsja this year.

OK - thanks a lot. Not the answer I wanted - but the one I expected!
