Sadielady said:Remember when I talked about trying to bring together a NCEL show team down here? I about got torn apart then. For some reason some peeps down here just don't like outsiders or transplants (as the locals call us) trying to create anything new. :shrug:

Does the NCEL allow students using there private horses when host a competition??
Also I'm reading that qualifying schools must have 50 individual students enrolled in the lesson program WEEKLY? or do they mean teach 50 lessons a week?
devinej said:so i've noticed that there are about a billion horse shows in st.mary's county this fall at 4 or 5 different locations. not sure how the turn out will be for each show if there are a billion of them - probably not great.
was wondering - what if we made a St.Mary's County Fall Schooling Show Circuit, and each location could host 1 show, and we'd get together on a prize list, put in all the classes everyone wants for each show and then we could have season end points and stuff. i think that would be fun.
what do you say?
My understanding is the horses can't be privately owned unless they are in a lesson program. No ONE barn meets all the qualifications down here that I know of, but a couple together do. We have some good riders down here, but again it would mean that we would have to work together. I must wait to see what the next few months hold for me. Maybe next year......BZHorseMomE said:Some of the Barns listed on the 2007/2008 schedule don't even have 10 school horses.

No private mounts. It's modeled after the college intercollegiate program. Part of the competition is riding a horse you're not had an opportunity to ride before. The only time the kids get to ride familiar horses are when their barn hosts a meet and at finals.BZHorseMomE said:Does the NCEL allow students using there private horses when host a competition??
But I think you have to have an indoor. ?fredsaid2 said:No private mounts. It's modeled after the college intercollegiate program.

Sounds like AMIT is the only barn that could possibly meet the requirements.

Sparks said:I think that's a great idea. I'd think having one or two well attended shows at a barn would be more beneficial than hosting 6 shows with low attendance. Someone mentioned BCHSA and they really do have a nice show circuit.
Hmmmm.... I wonder how they got around it? Would you PM who the team was? I think I know, but just want to confirm.fredsaid2 said:Maybe, but I know of one barn that didn't and even when they did the shows were typically held outdoors.
They actually have a "C" team now too. At least a couple of years ago they did.Sadielady said:Hmmmm.... I wonder how they got around it? Would you PM who the team was? I think I know, but just want to confirm.

I don't know that team. Oh well. I better go work now. You guys have a glorious day.fredsaid2 said:I think it was Century Manor in Nokesville. This was several years ago, maybe the rules have changed since then.
