Code of conduct

Code of Conduct: Please ensure you are familiar with the Equestrian WA Codes of Conduct. Please refer to the EWA website for more information www.equestrianwa.org.au.

Officials, ground staff and volunteers: These people are essential in the running of our competitions and events. Please treat them with respect. Poor sportsmanship will not be tolerated. Verbal or physical bullying behaviour will be reported to the CEO of EWA and disciplinary action will be taken where appropriate.

Duty of Care: It is your responsibility to promptly report unsafe and or hazardous situations to the Organising Committee.

Dogs

NB: We prefer dogs not to be present on the grounds for the safety of competitors, however, if you do bring along your dog, it MUST be kept on a leash at all times and be in the control of an adult.

Stallions

Stallion Code of Conduct: The EA has introduced new strict rules relating to the handling of stallions at events. If this Code is adhered to, the likelihood of an accident involving a loose stallion will be minimized. It is understood that "accidents" can happen but taking all possible precautions and making all riders aware of the presence of a stallion minimizes the possibility of accidents. Competitors with stallions should refer to the EA for the most recent guidelines on how to handle stallions including what gear is required including the “green disk” to be displayed.

Helper duties

Competitions cannot run without helpers. Please see Appendix 1 in the program for your helper duty. We try, wherever possible, to limit helper duties to around 1 hr. Please contact the Committee immediately if you have any problems with your allocated helper duty. Thank you for your help!

Catering

Catering: Food and refreshments will be available for purchase throughout the event. Perth Coffee Van will be on the grounds supplying hot and cold foods, delicious organic coffee and other refreshments for our competitors, helpers and spectators.


Start order

Start times and start order: Competitors should note that the start order will not vary from the FINAL published draw Thursday PM before the competition. The Organising Committee will endeavour to ensure that riders ride as close as possible to their start time. If a class is running early, and a rider wishes to go in early that will be accepted. No rider will be asked to enter before their start time.

NB: It is the riders’ responsibility to present to the gear checker / marshall in a timely manner to allow them to ride on time. The Committee recommends riders report to be gear checked no later than 15 mins prior to their start time. Gear checkering and marshalling stations are indicated on the map provided and will be easy to locate.

Results

The Organising Committee will endeavour to get the results of tests published within 4 riders of a test being ridden.

Tie-Break: In the case of a tie for any of the first three places, the higher total of the 4 collective marks will decide the better placing. If these marks are tied, the placings remain tied.

Presentations

Presentations will take place during the event. A presentation schedule will be posted with the FINAL Draw and will also be on the Noticeboard at the commencement of the event. Event Organisers retain the right to amend the presentation schedule should the need arise. As a courtesy to sponsors, organisers and other competitors, all placegetters are expected to be in attendance at the presentations. Presentations are unmounted in front of the caravan and competitors must be in full competition attire unless otherwise advised. Competitors are kindly encouraged to acknowledge the generosity of our sponsors either in person or in writing, details of which will be provided.

Warm up etiquette

Warm-up etiquette: Riding rules for warm up areas as documented in the EWA Handbook and reproduced in this entry pack should be adhered to. Correct protocol in the warm up arena is expected, notably that riders meet “left on left”. There is no lungeing in the warm up arena. If you wish to lunge your horse you must do so in the enclosed arena behind the stables. NB: Dangerous and unruly horses whether being lunged or ridden may be asked to leave the warm up arena or lunging area for the safety of other competitors.


Venue map

Stabling

Stabling: Stables are available on the grounds and can be booked through the SEC. Yards are available “behind” the C-Quest arena at no cost. It is the responsibility of the rider to ensure that the stable or yard is left in a clean manner.

PRO-AM COMPETITION

HSRC Inc is delighted to continue the concept of a PRO-AM Competition in WA.

We are very thankful that the WINDY HILL STABLES have offered to sponsor the competition with $250 to be shared amongst the top 2 places and flower garlands to be awarded to the winning team. Garlands made by Issabelle Leppard.

1.  The purpose of the PRO-AM competition is to bring the WA elite and amateur levels closer together in a fun and supportive competition.

2.  The PRO-AM competition is a team competition of teams comprising respectively 1 Advanced 5.2 horse/rider combination and 1 Novice official horse/rider combination riding the 2.3 Novice class.

3.  The team score will be calculated by taking the average of the three performances e.g. PSG 65% and Novice 70% & 65% = team average of 66.67%

4.  The scores from riders’ “normal” class entry will form the basis of the team contribution.

5.  In the unlikely event of a “draw”, the Advanced 5.2 rider with the highest percentage will be the highest places team

The pairing of elite and amateur riders took place at the HSRC Committee Meeting on 4th November supervised by our Accountant
