Dear members,

The Hong Kong Equestrian Federation is delighted to have received an invitation from the Thailand Equestrian Federation as below:

Event Name:   CSIJ-B Bangkok @ The Princess Cup 2022

Dates:              Friday – Monday, 18 – 21 November 2022

Venue:             Royal Stable Unit and the Royal Horse Guard, Bangkok, Thailand

Quota:             3 Junior riders (aged 14 - 18) + 1 Coach/ Chef d’Equipe

Tentative Schedule

The show organizer will offer the following items for athletes during the competition period:

1. Accommodation

2 rooms sharing (IN 18 November / OUT 22 November, 4 nights/ 5 days)

Hotel: Vic3 Bangkok

Address: 88 Phahon Yothin Soi 3, Phaya-Thai, Bangkok 10400

Telephone: +66 2 2619 9888

Breakfast will be included in the hotel; food will be provided at the venue from 11 a.m. – 3 p.m. daily

2. Airport pick-up service

Airport pick-up/ send back services will be provided to riders and officials

The following costs for selected riders and Coach/ Chef d’Equipe will be covered by the HKEF on a strict reimbursement basis:

1. Round trip air ticket (Economy class) from Hong Kong
2. Travel Insurance
3. Meals allowance 
4. Training sessions for selected riders as preparation for the event
5. Entry fees
6. Local transportation between your home airport and residence

We are now looking for expressions of interest from interested riders and coaches. The following criteria will be taken into account in making selection decisions on the 3 fully sponsored athletes and the Coach/ Chef d’Equipe:

1. Current training level and results at the required level (1.00 - 1.10m) or above;

Ideally riders will have competition results at this level, but we will consider submissions from riders who are training at the level and show potential and whose application is endorsed by an HKEF approved coach, recognising that competition opportunities have been very limited over the past two seasons

2. Availability for training sessions (details to be confirmed once selection has been made but noting this is a borrowed horse competition so selected riders will likely need to ride at different centres in Hong Kong);
3. HKEF TSSC’s assessment of whether this would be an appropriate training and development opportunity for the selected riders

Should any HKEF member have the interest to compete/ be the Coach/ Chef d’Equipe at the captioned event, please kindly submit the following items via email to [email protected] by Friday 14 October 2022 5:00p.m. (GMT+8)

1. Entry Form
2. Passport Copy
3. Release of Liability and Indemnity (riders only)
4. Official Result Sheets (riders only)
5. Training/ Competition Videos (riders only)
6. Letter of support and recommendation from current coach (riders only)
7. Curriculum Vitae including qualifications and experience (Coach/ Chef d’Equipe only)

Any late submission or submission with missing document(s) received by HKEF Secretariat will not be processed.

Should there be any enquiry, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Best Regards,

Hong Kong Equestrian Federation
