SCATER
provides a huge range of organised horse riding activities throughout the
year, including trail rides, navigation rides, and the growing sport of Competitive
Trail Riding (CTR). Competitive
Trail Riding is a sport
which involves a horse and rider negotiating a course within a specified
time, being challenged at judge sections involving various obstacles along
the way. The course distances generally range from 24 to 32
kilometres, with a set riding pace of between 6 and 10 kilometres an hour. CTR’s
are one of the only sports in which riders and horses are judged
separately, with riders judged on the care and handling of their horse as
well as their riding skill. Horses are judged on their willingness to
perform the rider’s requests, manners and ability. It is not a
race! All
horses are given a horse health assessment before and after competition to
ensure their welfare is never compromised. Normally
for weekend events, riders arrive at the ride base, set up camp,
nominate with the Ride Secretary/Master and attend the ride briefing on
Saturday, with the competition commencing early Sunday morning.
For one day rides all this is completed on the day of competition. Attending
the ride briefing is essential as that is where details of the trail and
competition are discussed and the competitor’s numbers are given out. Competition
morning involves riders presenting their horses saddled and ready to ride
a minimum of 15 minutes prior to their scheduled starting time to the Ride
Marshal, who will direct them to their first judge point, and the ride is
underway…….. We would love to welcome you to our club and sport, so come along and give it a try. Click
