2024 INAUGURAL CPEC MEMBERS CLUB POINT SCORE
The aim of the Junior and Senior point score competition is to encourage more riders to our monthly competitions. There will be annual prizes awarded to:
- Junior and Senior dressage and show jumping champion (combined points from both nights)
- Junior and Senior dressage champion (points for dressage nights)
- Junior and Senior show jumping champion (points for jump nights)
The points are tallied from each event throughout the year, meaning the more events you compete in, the better your chances of being our annual winner. Prizes include trophies, rugs and goods and will be announced at our annual Christmas party at the conclusion of all 2024 events. Points have been tallied since our first jump night and will be monitored by the Committee. Please ensure you have elected 1 horse for your points to be accumilated for.
