The schedule for 2013 will be similar for 2012, with a few minor changes - if you would like to sponsor a class the cost is £30, or £40 for a championship, although donations of any amount are always welcome.

We will consider NEW classes for 2013 - contact us with details, although we will look more favourably on classes that you are prepared to sponsor - to sponsor a class outright, the cost is £50 for the first year, which is then reduced to £30 for subsequent years if it has been supported. If you also wish your own specialist judge for the class(es), then this will need to be provided by the sponsor(s).Contact USA-UK if you would like to help.

Competition for all European based Saddlebred Horses  - European Charter Club Challenge. All USA-UK registered purebreds, owned by current members will automatically be entered in this for both the European Championships & our British National Championships. 2012 event sponsored already!.
