British Eventing launches the first in a series of free guides

British Eventing launches the first in a series of free guides

How to Start Eventing - everything you ever wanted to know about affiliated Eventing in the UK!

As part of its ongoing education and training initiative and aim to get more riders into affiliated sport, British Eventing has launched the first in a series of free training guides.

How to Start Eventing is a colourful, fully illustrated 30 page booklet that covers how to prepare and train for your first event, what you and your horse should wear for all three phases, how to enter and choose your first event and much, much more.

"How to Start Eventing is intended for newcomers who want to give the sport a try. Maybe they have show jumped or taken part in hunter trials before and now want to take the next step," explains BE's PR and Communications Manager, Liza Randall.

"There is so much interest in our sport at a grassroots level, with increasing demand for BE80(T) and BE90 classes. And whilst we want to encourage more riders into our sport, we recognise that with that comes a responsibility for education and training.

"Feedback following our BE80(T) classes show that the on-site training is really appreciated, so we are working on that to put on more specific training days, but at the same time competitors have asked for more basic advice on Eventing, so this booklet will help plug that gap."

The How to Start Eventing guide is available now for reference or to download via the homepage of the BE website at http://www.britisheventing.com/ You can also pick up a copy from the BE stand at Blair Castle International Horse Trials in Scotland in August, Blenheim Palace International Horse Trials in Oxfordshire or the Land Rover Burghley Horse Trials in Lincolnshire, also in September.
