What is Arena TREC?

Arena TREC focuses on the MA (Control of Paces) and PTV (Obstacle course) phases of TREC and events are usually run in an indoor or outdoor school.

The PTV is a course of 10 optional obstacles, each with a maximum score of 10 points. To find out more, please look at the TREC GB Rulebook

The MA phase consists of a 2-2.2m wide corridor between 50 and 150m long, along which the rider canters as slowly as possible before returning by walking as fast as possible without breaking pace.

The Winter League will include results from all TREC GB Arena TREC competitions held from 1st October 2024 to 28th April 2025 from Affiliated classes. The best 4 placings for each horse and rider combination will be used to calculate the League standings. If a competitor is eliminated in the PTV phase, there will be no league points awarded for that round, even if they are placed in the class.

The highest four scores will be counted for the league. In the event of equal positions the TOTAL actual PTV scores (from 4 events) will be taken into account.

Riders who are not members of TREC GB can join within 48 hours of the competition for their performance at that event to count towards the TREC GB League
