Qualifying
Riders should be aged 14-18 years (as on 1 January 2025) *, attending school and riding regularly in Hong Kong.
* A rider younger than 14 years may be allowed to enter, subject to approval by the organisers.
Participating riders must take part in at least two scheduled BREC Eventing competitions, competing in any class, and should complete all disciplines satisfactorily in at least one. The dates of the one-day events at BREC in the 2024/25 season are 20 October, 3 November, 16 November, 13-14 December (includes the FEI Eventing World Challenge) 2024, and 8 March 2025.
A rider’s best result achieved in any of the scheduled BREC Eventing competitions (i.e. between 20 October 2024 and 8 March 2025) will contribute to their overall score in the EFHKC Senior Inter-school Eventing Challenge 2024 (see below).
Horses
It is not necessary that the rider enter the same horse for each competition.
It should be noted that horses for this competition are not provided by the EFHKC: competitors will need to make their own arrangements (e.g. with their regular riding school or livery yard). The EFHKC is not liable for related costs, such as horse hire, transportation, etc.
The Final and Overall Score
The final of the EFHKC Senior Inter-school Eventing Challenge 2025 shall take place as part of the EFHKC Eventing Horse of the Year Show on Saturday 15 March 2025.
Riders may take part in the 80 cm, 90 cm, or 100 cm class of the EFHKC Eventing HOYS.
The first place will be awarded to the rider with the lowest accumulated penalties, scored as follows:
20% of the penalties drawn from a rider’s best result in any of the earlier BREC Eventing competitions (20 October 2024 – 8 March 2025) will be added to the rider’s total penalties acquired in the EFHKC Eventing HOYS.
To recognise the increased challenge of a higher class, for a rider competing in a 90 cm class, the total penalties accrued (season best result or final) will be divided by 1.05. For a rider competing in the 100 cm class, the total penalties accrued will be divided by 1.15.
Prize for the winning rider
The winning rider in the EFHKC Senior Inter-school Eventing Challenge 2025 will receive funding from EFHKC of up to HK$10,000, payable towards an approved programme of training as selected by the rider. The chosen programme of training must be undertaken before 31 Dec 2025 (Friday) and must be approved in advance by the Training and Selection Sub‑Committee (TSSC) of the EFHKC.
