Buckinghamshire. If you would like to add your Riding Club, please send a short

Great
Missenden Riding Club
Great Missenden Riding Club is based at
Deep Mill Farm in Great Missenden. We are very fortunate to be able to hold all
our events and training sessions at this great venue.
We are a very friendly bunch and do our best to make new members and competitors
very welcome (as well as look after our “regulars”). We run all our events
to a high professional standard using BSJA course designers and judges, and
listed dressage judges without being too officious about it all. So, whatever
discipline you do, and whatever level you are at, you should have an enjoyable
experience with us.
Club membership and competitions are only open to riders aged 17 and over with
the exception of our Senior and Junior Show Jumping Competition on 4th June and
our Showing Show on 25th June.

High Wycombe
Riding Club
High Wycombe Riding Club (HWRC) is a
medium size friendly club and we have both junior and senior members. Our
membership is very diverse and includes non-riders, those who have returned to
riding after a long break, all-round riders and those who compete regularly at
competitions. We enter teams into all of the riding club area qualifiers and
have had success both at area and national championship level.
As a club we try hard to offer something for everyone and have a packed, varied
annual fixture list. Every year we hold an open show, a junior show, hunter
trial, one day event, dressage show and various un-mounted clinics and lectures/
demonstrations. There are also social events and regular training clinics in all
disciplines.
We welcome all new members of any age or ability to join us. We have a wealth of
knowledge within our Committee so are always pleased to help on any problems if
we can. Just ask us! Details of all our events, more information about the club
and joining forms can be found on our website www.highwycomberidingclub.co.uk.

Chalfont
Heights
Riding Club
www.Chalfontheightsridingclub.org.uk
Email: Chalfont_Heights@Hotmail.com
Chalfont Heights Riding Club was founded in the living room of Pat Turner’s
home in November 1978 by a group who rode in the vicinity of Chalfont Heights
& Chalfont St Peter, meeting at Winkers Farm and members’ houses for
coffee evenings. The club affiliated to the British Horse Society in 1979.
Since then, CHRC has continued to flourish. The club holds two open shows a
year, 3 dressage challenges, and this year a mini eventer trial. In addition
regular training is provided for our members.
The club enters teams in all area competitions, and for the last 3 years having
representation at the British Riding Club National Championships.
Based in the Chalfonts, we also have members from the surrounding areas
including Rickmansworth, Harefield, Ruislip and
Watford
.
Despite our growth we retain our reputation as a friendly club where everyone is
encouraged to have a go, led by a hardworking and dedicated committee and
helpers, who give up many hours of their spare time to organise events which
make it such a success. We also have fantastic backing from our excellent
sponsors - without their financial support, our events would not be possible –
please show your gratitude by supporting them. So what are you waiting for? Come
and join us!
The
Old Berkeley
Hunt Riding Club
The
OBH Riding Club was started in 1948 by members of the Old Berkeley Hunt who
wanted to ride together in the summer. Colonel Phipps was a founding member and
we still award the Phipps trophy, a very beautiful, mounted hunting horn, to the
member accruing the most club points throughout the year.
The
club membership is for seniors, starting at seventeen years old, and caters for
a range of disciplines. We run open competitions, from a showing show through to
a one day event, and a series of members shows. Training now includes both
winter and summer training as well as a mini one day event over a “starters”
course. We try to encourage a social
aspect to the club as well, with an annual quiz and sometimes a BBQ at the
members’ events, while people wait for results.
Because we’re affiliated, we can also send teams to all sorts and
levels of qualifiers, drawn from whoever is interested.
