Champagne Run is hosting a Cross Country Equestrian Clinic (CCE)! The Cross Country Equestrian Association oversees the brand-new sport of Cross Country Equestrian, a discipline designed to foster the accessibility of equestrian sport, encourage quality horsemanship and reward a true horse-and-rider partnership.CCE is an exciting, objectively scored cross country based jumping competition that rewards the partnership that can best execute a plan to accumulate the most points. CCE offers riders the ability to choose which obstacles to jump and which to pass based on their preferences and their horse’s abilities. This allows the horse-and-rider team to have a positive ride at each competition.
What is CCE?
CCE is a brand new equestrian sport based around a cross-country jumping competition, that rewards a well developed partnership between horse and rider.
The competitor rides a course of obstacles, scoring points for successfully jumping and incurring penalties for errors and exceeding the course time. CCE is a completely objectively scored equestrian sport.
POINTS – PENALTIES = FINAL SCORE
The competitive goal is simple: to finish with the highest score.
The most unique feature of CCE is that every obstacle is optional, so a rider can choose whether to attempt an obstacle or to pass and ride on to the next. There is no penalty for passing an obstacle.This flexibility makes it much easier for competitors to do what is best for their partnership, and allows the partnership to progress toward their own goals.
CCE asks for a well trained and conditioned horse, and a knowledgable and capable rider, but does not require a singular talent such as incredible movement or jumping scope. The sport is about horsemanship and partnership as much as it is about athletic ability and skill.
CCE does more than just test these attributes - it creates the perfect environment for their development.
Levels 2, 3, 4.
