BSPS AREA 1B Members Points
Members can collect Points from any BSPS affiliated show – note RIHS and HOYS qualifiers can be used but only if they are also qualifiers for the BSPS Championships.
You record your own points on the card that can be downloaded below or collected from any 1B show. Plus 3 additional affiliated to the BSPS shows.
Please complete 1 card for each pony/class i.e., if you compete in both nursery and cradle stakes on the same pony you need to keep 2 cards. Also, if you do Open and Novice classes again you need to keep separate cards.
PLEASE NOTE THAT IF YOU ARE DOING ANY LIHS PERFORMANCE CLASSES THEN YOU NEED TO KEEP A SEPARATE CARD FOR EACH CLASS YOU DO
We hold a fantastic end of season party and points presentation night at which all members who have submitted cards will receive amazing rosettes.
