I done one in 07 was a fab day for all involved, you all choose an envonlope which contains a group of horses that you will ride for the day, usually you have dressage (2 riders) Cross country (again 2 riders) then a general knowledge quiz.

Dont know of any websites but it is well worth entering =D

For universities and colleges, try the British Universities and Colleges Sport site then look up equestrian. http://www.bucs.org.uk/sport.asp?section=896&sectionTitle=Equestrian

The competition I know about is where four teams of 4 riders do a dressage test then show jump, all on hired horses (usually at a good standard riding school). So each horse gets ridden four times and the dressage test is judged on the rider's performance ie who gets the best test out of that particular horse.

If you are at sixth-form college, then you want the NSEA website which is for schools and sixth forms. Do you want info on that?
