COMPETITION PASSES

For Winter qualifiers and onwards, BRC has introduced a ‘competition pass’ which takes the place of Pre-Entries. To compete and qualify for BRC championships, all entrants must have a valid club membership AND a valid competition pass, which can be purchased via the BRC Sport80 portal. Any member competing at a qualifier without both club membership and a competition pass will be disqualified. The competition passes are £30 plus transaction fee (for riders with 1-2 horses) and £45 plus transaction fee (for riders with 3 or more horses) for a rolling 12 months. Horses do not need to be registered.  For full FAQs and a guide on how to purchase your pass, click here
