The British Equestrian Federation (BEF) today confirms that Vikki Underwood, Performance Director to the BEF’s World Class Programme, has left the organisation.

A fantastic opportunity for a sponsor to support the entire BE Youth programme from 2020 onwards has now become available, which includes an extensive training programme, competition opportunities for under 21s and the inaugural BE Youth Regional Team Championships providing the pinnacle of the programme each summer. We now look to 2020 where the Championships will be hosted at Bishop Burton College on the 24th to 26th July.

Nominations are now open for The British Horse Foundation Stallion AI Services Meritoire Award and Horse & Hound Outstanding Mare Award, which will be presented at the British Horse Foundation Awards Dinner on 11 January 2020.

Wilton Horse Trials is running in July 2020 and is now looking for a new title sponsor after 13 years of the previous sponsor. It attracts a truly international range of competitors and has classes from BE100 to Open Intermediate, with typically around 550 competitors attending the event each year.

British Eventing is pleased to launch the "Attention to Detail" themed National Home Coaches training day being held on Tuesday 14th January 2020 at the Unicorn Trust Equestrian Centre, Gloucestershire.

The refund of entry fees in respect of cancelled classes at Norton Disney (2) and Aston-le-Walls (X) have now been processed.

As part of the ongoing development of the British Eventing Youth Performance Programme, we are delighted to announce the new coaches and selectors of the programme.

The BE membership price has remained flat since 2014, however, to keep pace with rising costs, an increase will come into effect for 2020. There will also be an increase on Entry Fees, Start Fees and Abandonment insurance.

Following an an issue with the building's internet connectivity this morning, which was impacting both our internet connection and phone lines, the issue has now been resolved and the Head Office phone lines are back open. Thank you for your patience.

Phone lines are open Monday - Friday 9.15am - 5pm
