Each entrant must have previously competed in each discipline at a level equivalent to that of the relevant Division of entry (e.g. the same Division of the HKEF Inter-school Equestrian Challenge in a previous year; the preliminary class of a ‘Mini’ Inter-school competition at LWSC (for the Lower Division) or the ‘Warm-up’ Show at TMPRS (for the Higher Division); a gazetted show at BREC, etc.).
In order to further encourage young riders to continue to compete throughout the year, the HKEF will provide free junior membership for the current season* to all participants in the HKEF Inter-school Equestrian Challenge who have not already been admitted as members.
To apply for free junior membership, entrants should complete the membership form and return it to the HKEF together with a HK Identity Card/passport copy and address proof.
