I don't have my own horse, can I still join you?

Absolutely!! If you do not own your own horse, you are still very welcome to come along to the competitions to assist and support.  However, as the team do not own any horses there are very limited opportunities for those who do not have access to horses to compete for the team.

Horses are available for the Initial Sift and this will give you the opportunity to get to know us and the standard expected.  There may also be opportunities for you to hire horses throughout the season and once you have attended the sift we will have a better understanding of your capabilities and can let you know when the opportunities arise!  If you are looking to join us mid-season, please still get in touch with your area Rep as we understand due to deployments operations not all people can make the Sift.

Don't forget there are lots of opportunities with the various saddle clubs.  Most are listed at the following link www.forcesequine.co.uk/saddle-clubs.

RM Bickleigh Saddle Club offers lessons and hacks at discounted rates for Service Personnel and their Dependents.  They sometimes organise and attend local competitions and they always field an impressive team at the Royal Navy Equitation Championships. RN Champs 2011 will be held in September.

Quob Equestrian Centre also offers forces discount.
