Classic Format Information
Getting Ready for the Ultimate Test!
Here we have two very good articles to help you prepare yourself
and your horse/crew for a Classic 3-Day Event!
While the USEF Rules for Eventing only includes information for the Training and Preliminary three-day events, The USEA Classic Series Task Force has put together a Classic Series Handbook for organizers and competitors to use as a resource, including specifics for Beginner Novice through Preliminary Classic Series events. The new handbook includes guidelines and regulations for Beginner Novice through Preliminary levels, a specification chart, helpful hints for competitors riding the roads and tracks, and checklists and time tables for organizers to follow.
