Team Hunt update

Looking forward to running the team hunt tomorrow for the first time in the main arena. Once the team hunt has been completed we will move on to our EXPO gymkhana. Its always a fun day at the Team Hunt and Gymkhana.
Now for some rules
It is a move up draw- if a team does not show up then the next team must move up into the earlier time slot, therefore you must be at the marshalling area at least half an hour before you’re due to compete. You will then be called from the marshalling area into the practice area where you can take your team over the jumps before moving on to the presentation judge. Please listen to the marshals when they ask you to move to the judge. Punctuality and Presentation in our Team Hunt is very important. Once you have been judged as individuals and as a team you will proceed to the Team Hunt. Multiple judges will score your team as you perform the Hunt. A team that presents late will have 30 penalties applied to their point score. Some hints for presentation- we are an old fashioned bunch and really like a well presented and well mannered rider, horse and team. Horses are to be clean and neatly plaited/stock horse neatly clipped manes. Clean horse, clean equipment. neat uniform, clean boots, clean horse boots, overall presentation. School saddle cloths and uniforms must be worn.
NO PAINT OR COLOURED GLITTER ALLOWED ON HORSES OR RIDERS.
There will be minus points for any paint on horses. Effort in presenting a matching team will be rewarded: even composite teams can match with boots, bonnets, tail ribbon, quarter markers etc Teams will have points deducted or be eliminated if there is any rider or parental rudeness to judges, officials or volunteers- it is sad that this needs to be said. Just bring a positive and can do attitude and plenty of team spirit.
