Heading to Carolina International? Show jumping course designer Richard Jeffery will be offering a Show Jumping Seminar on Wednesday, March 20, 2019. While the clinic serves as a training program for course designers, it’s also open to auditors and a great opportunity to learn from one of the top minds in our sport — no one has more show jumping design experience than Jeffery, whose resume includes the past 21 years of Kentucky Three-Day Events and myriad championships.
The Seminar takes place from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Carolina Horse Park in Raeford, North Carolina, prior to the start of the Carolina International CCI & Horse Trials.
For Course Designers: This seminar serves as a training program for current USEF “R” and “S” Eventing Course Designers who meet the eligibility requirements and wish to obtain their USEF “R” Eventing Jumping Course Designer (EVJCD) license. The seminar will also fulfill the continuing education clinic (CEC) requirements for current “R” EVJCD license holders.
In order to be eligible for a USEF “R” EVJCD license, judges must have “designed the jumping course at a minimum of two Intermediate level or higher horse trials at two separate Federation licensed/endorsed competitions within the current or previous two years. These courses must be submitted with the application.”
The registration fee for a prospective “R” EVJCD is $125.
For Auditors: The clinic is also open to auditors interested in learning more about show jumping course design — the better we as riders understand the questions being asked of us and our horses, the better we are able to answer them, right?
The registration fee for auditing is $45.
Click here to register. Pre-registration is not required; you may register on-site the day of the seminar. Lunch and beverages will be provided during the day.
