Managing Horse Events Following Inclement Weather Conditions:

Given the recent High Court ruling in favour of a severely injured rider from a fall from her horse whilst participating in a Campdraft event in New South Wales, we thought it timely to remind all Shows about their duty of care applying to such events. Please read this document regarding risk management key considerations and waivers

Please remember that if a judge, course builder or steward is paid a fee for their appointment they will need to supply a copy of current insurance as they will not be covered under the Show Societies Insurance policy.  If they are paid traveling expenses only, they will be covered under the Show Societies Volunteer insurance. It is recommended that a copy of Judge's Code of Conduct as well as the the Judge's Agreement Form to each Judge when Show Societies invite them to attend.
