T-Shirt Day

For our T-Shirt Day events, you don't need to be wearing a jacket or tie. We do ask that your attire is neat, tidy and clean. Coloured clothing is both permitted and encouraged at this event, but there are a few rules that must be adhered to;

• Breeches/jodhpurs must be of colours permitted by the EA rulebook (see Section 5) i.e. “white or off-white” for FEI level, and “white or light coloured” for EA level.

• Coloured saddlepads are permitted for this event.

• Boots, bell boots and bandages are permitted in warm-up areas, however are not permitted in tests, as per the EA rulebook.

• Rider footwear (including gaiters) must meet the requirements outlined in the EA rulebook (see Section 5).

• Helmets must meet EA regulations and be tagged with an EA helmet tag, prior to riding. Come and see us in the office if you need a tag for your helmet.

• Braiding of manes is not mandatory for this event, however our officials appreciate all efforts made to present in a neat and tidy manner. 

Any equipment or attire that the HVDA Committee or Gear Steward officials deem dangerous or otherwise inappropriate will need to be removed upon request. Failure to do so may result in penalties, including elimination from tests.

If you are unsure or have any queries regarding attire at this event, please see the committee at the office on the day for assistance. Alternatively, contact the HVDA Events Team events@huntervalleydressage.com for advice.
