VHS Rulebook and those explicitly outlined in this schedule. 3. Exhibitors under the age of 18 must have the declaration on the entry form signed by a parent/guardian. 4. Failure to observe any of the rules may result in disqualification of the horse/pony concerned and/or the Exhibitor may be requested

to leave the showground immediately. 5. Exhibitors are required to have public liability insurance cover for their exhibits and it is strongly recommended that the exhibitor fully

insure their personal property whilst attending the Championships. 6. The VHS operates a zero tolerance to offensive, abusive or unpleasant behaviour whether it is directed to its officials, members or

other supporters. Any person found to be acting in this unacceptable manner will be asked to leave the showground and may be subject to disciplinary actions. Should an individual be ejected then all monies paid for stabling, entry fees or monies won will be forfeited.

7. The VHS has a commitment to the protection of equines from any form of abuse, whether it is from misuse of a whip, inappropriate or ill-fitting bit/saddlery/boots, the restriction of fresh water or forage or any other abuse. A Welfare Officer will be present at the show and will investigate any concerns raised to the organisers.

8. All exhibitors are asked to be aware of animals on the Showground and ensure that all exhibits are fit and well. If anybody has reason to believe that a horse/pony is unfit or unwell, they must report this to the organisers immediately.

9. All horses to be accompanied by a valid equine passport which must be produced upon request. 10. All entry fees, stabling and electric hook-up charges are non-refundable. In exceptional circumstances, on the submission of a written

The VHS has the right to limit entries, change, cancel, split or amalgamate classes as they see fit. 17. All competitors are reminded that whilst the Show Secretary will make all reasonable effort to support individuals where classes have

clashed, it is ultimately the competitor’s responsibility to decide which class they will enter. Judges will be advised of the desire to accommodate all competitors but ultimately the judge will decide when to commence their class.

18. The organisers cannot be held responsible where a competitor has entered more than one class and a clash occurs. Whilst every reasonable effort will be made to allow competitors to compete in both classes, this may not always be possible. The judge’s decision is final.

19. It is mandatory for all competitors to wear correctly secured riding hats to the current approved BSI or European standard, at all times when mounted, with the exception of side-saddle exhibits where SSA rules apply (with the only exception that no spurs or spur bands are allowed).

How to Find Us - Maps & Directions

Address: Arena UK, Allington Lane, Allington, Grantham, Lincolnshire NG32 2EF

The venue requests that all competitors please use the A1 to access Arena UK.

There is direct access from the Gonerby Moor, North Grantham interchange on the A1 (Grantham Services). Follow signs to Equestrian Centre which is only approximately half a mile from the A1. The alternative route from the A52, through Sedgebrook and Allington is not suitable for horseboxes due to narrow roads and a (12ft) height restriction bridge. It is also a residential area and the residents would appreciate if the traffic flow coming through their villages could be reduced on show days.
