Rally Qualifying Certificate D2/3 CT - BN) Eventing Rally is a "horse trial" which involves jumping outside in a very large field during the cross-country phase. Having a certain rating does not by itself prepare a rider to compete at Rally. Therefore, to qualify for a spot on a Starter or Beginner Novice Eventing Rally team, your instructor must complete this certificate in the spring (not the fall) before the Rally Meeting in April. Riders must also regularly attend Pony Club meetings.
Riders who wish to ride at Beginner Novice level must be actively competing at the desired level at recognized horse trials (USEA sanctioned) prior to the Rally Meeting OR riders can have their coach certify that they have schooled several times over maximum height Beg Novice fences (2'7") over a course that holds recognized horse trials (ex. Flying Cross, Spring Run, KY Horse Park, etc.) PRIOR TO the Rally Meeting in April. Beg. Novice Rally is a championship-qualifying course, not a move-up course. *Note: the same experience requirements apply at the Novice level and above.
