Rule Changes

The USEF annual convention was this weekend and they passed several important rules to note. You can see all the specifics at www.usef.org, but here's a quick synopsis as it pertains to us...

-all riders at USEF sanctioned horse trials are required to wear approved helmets while mounted at all times. This excludes FEI sanctioned horse trials at the upper levels. (Meaning you can wear a top hat in dressage at the FEI level for dressage)

-all riders Fourth Level and below are required to wear a helmet at all times while mounted at USEF sanctioned competitions

-all anabolic steroids are prohibited beginning Dec 1, 2011.

-The description and eligibility have changed in the Hunter Very Green Divisions.

There are several other things in the works, so be sure to check out the new changes.
