An exciting new Championships culminating at Aintree Equestrian Centre

Harry Hall One Club – Anyone Can Event (ACE), is an Arena style eventing competition designed to appeal to riders of all ages and experience that gets underway this autumn.

The new series will run throughout the winter months and into spring providing riders with the ideal opportunity to get out, develop their skills and enjoy competing during the shorter daylight hours. A range of height classes will be offered from 70cm up to 1m and will be available to anyone aged 10 upwards, helping to encourage younger riders into the sport.

QUALIFIERS OPEN TO ALL

ACE qualifiers will be run at a range of venues across the UK and will be open to all. Riders will not need to be members of BE to take part in the qualifiers. Qualifying legs will offer competitors the chance to pick up a coveted qualifying ticket for the Championship Finals – offering a fabulous four-day celebration of ACE competition, set to be held this spring at the stunning Aintree Equestrian Centre in Liverpool.

CHAMPIONSHIPS & QUALIFICATION

To compete at the Championships, riders must have an active membership (minimum PAYG). The horse/pony details will need to be registered on the BE website, this is free of charge.

The Harry Hall One Club ACE Championship Finals will take place across the 29 May – 1 June with Seniors contesting their four national titles (70cm, 80cm, 90cm & 100cm) over the Thursday and Friday (29 – 30 May) and Juniors over the weekend of (31 May – 1 June).
