VALLEY EQUINE VETERINARY CENTRE
The WA Eventing Committee would like to thank Warwick Vale and the team at Valley Equine Veterinary Centre for their continued support of our state's eventing community.
Valley Equine Veterinary Centre provides $2500 each year to Eventing WA, plus veterinary attendance at one WA FEI CIC/CCI event in an FEI Veterinary Delegate Capacity, and two annual veterinary lectures to WA Eventing Squad Members.
They also sponsor the FEI Young Eventing Rider of the Year Award, which aims to foster the young eventing rider into FEI competitions. The award includes a prize for the most outstanding and successful horse/rider combination of the year and allows for some financial assistance for further training and education for that combination during the following year.

MER UPDATE
The following information is of urgent importance particularly to those planning on entering Sydney and/or Melbourne in the upcoming weeks.
In reference to the Minimum Eligibility Requirements (MER) rule change which took effect in January 2017, MER are now being correctly calculated by EA’s database.
Following the 2017 rule change, the MER now requires not more than 67 (or 55%) penalties in Dressage, not more than 75 seconds (or 30 time faults) in XC, and there is no change to Show Jumping which remains at 16 penalties (note time faults are not included). For further information, refer to the Eventing National Sport Rules, reference Chapter 5 - Article 517 Minimum Eligibility Requirement.
Results can be viewed here.
Please discard listings (75 penalties in Dressage, 90 secs time on XC and 16 penalties in Show Jumping) that you may have viewed between January and midday 27 April 2017 as they are no longer valid.
