FEI MER Update

In response to changes implemented by the FEI to Minimum Eligibility Requirements (MERs), from 1 July British Eventing will be making a couple of amendments.

 

These will be as follows:

 

CCI4* - Short

For uncategorised, C and D athletes, the FEI requirement has increased from 2 x CCI3*-S to 3 x CCI3*-S. Therefore, taking this into account, the GBR horse and rider requirement for these athletes will now be 1 x CCI3*-L/S or 1 Advanced, in addition to the FEI requirement.

 

CCI3* - Long

For uncategorised FEI athletes, the FEI requirement has increased from 1 x CCI3*-S and (1 x CCI2*-L or 1 x CCI3*-S) to 2 x CCI3*-S and (1 x CCI2*-L or 1 x CCI3*-S). In response to this, the GBR horse and rider requirement for these athletes will now be 1 x Advanced or 2 x Intermediate, in addition to the FEI requirement.
