MeCTA DIVISION AND RULES – 2015
In addition to USEA-defined levels, MeCTA has formally identified two lower divisions, Intro and
Elementary. Organizers may have other divisions, but MeCTA recognizes only the levels listed
below for Year-End awards and rule-enforcement. MeCTA uses The Rules for Eventing as laid out
by The USEA unless otherwise stated. All scoring will follow the USEA scoring unless otherwise
stated.
For Untimed Stadium Rounds, penalty points will be as follows:
Refusal = 8 pts; Rail down = 4 pts. Fall of Rider = Elimination (timed or not)
2-Phases and Ultimate 2-Phases;
A horse may be entered and ridden twice in the same or different levels by different riders.
Organizers cannot be responsible for scheduling problems as a result of a Horse being ridden by
two competitors.
3-Phases;
A horse may only be ridden once in a 3-Phase Event.
For Intro;
No Elimination for unauthorized assistance for the duration of the event at the Intro Level ONLY,
unless it is deemed unsafe.
In the instance that the horse leaves the arena during the Dressage Test the judge will score
each movement as ridden in its entirety even if the test or any individual movement is
interrupted by the horse leaving the arena.
For Intro and Elementary;
Errors of Dressage Test will be penalized but without Elimination.
Elimination will only occur in the event of the fall of the horse or rider (not landing on their feet and
remaining standing or 2nd fall) or at the discretion of the Organizer, Judge or Technical Advisor in
the name of safety. For stadium and cross country, horse/rider combination will be Eliminated for 3
refusals at any one fence, however there will be no Elimination for total refusals on entire course.
Eliminated combinations will be allowed to continue at the Organizers discretion.

1. RESPONSIBILITY
A competitor is ultimately responsible for knowing these rules and complying with them.
The appointment of a steward or official, whether or not provided for in these rules, does not
absolve the competitor from such responsibility. It is the responsibility of the competitor to enter a
horse at the level that corresponds to its abilities. If the competitor is a minor, a specified adult
must accept this responsibility.
1.1 Every eventuality cannot be provided for in these rules. In any unforeseen or exceptional
circumstances it is the duty of the Ground Jury to make a decision in a sporting spirit, and to
approach as nearly as possible the intention of these rules.
2. RESTRICTIONS ON SCHOOLING HORSES
2.1. It is forbidden, under penalty of disqualification, for anyone other than the competitor who will
ride the horse in the competition to school the horse during the competition. This period of
restriction begins at 3:00 pm of the day prior to the start of the entire competition.
2.2. Riding close to Cross-Country obstacles, or riding in the Dressage or Jumping arenas prior to
the actual competition is forbidden, unless specifically authorized by the Ground Jury, under
penalty of disqualification. This restriction is specifically intended to prevent competitors from
gaining an unfair advantage from schooling or showing the obstacle(s) to their horses prior to the
competition.
2.3. The Cross-Country course will be closed to all competitors on the same date. The course
closed date must be published in the prize list of the competition.
3. ABUSE OF HORSES
3.1. ABUSE. Any act or series of actions that, in the opinion of the Ground Jury and/or the
Technical Advisor can clearly and without doubt be defined as abuse of horses shall be penalized
by disqualification. Such acts include, but are not limited to:
* Riding an exhausted horse.
* Excessive pressing of a tired horse.
* Excessive use of whip and/or spurs, and/or bit.
* Riding an obviously lame horse.
3.2. WHIP
The use of the whip must be for a good reason, at an appropriate time, in the right place, and with
appropriate severity.
a. Reason—the whip must only be used either as an aid to encourage the horse forward, or as a
reprimand. It must never be used to vent a rider’s temper. Such use is always excessive.
b. Time—As an aid, the only appropriate time is when a horse is reluctant to go forward under
normal aids of the seat and legs. As a reprimand, the only appropriate time is immediately after a
horse has been disobedient, e.g. napping or refusing. The whip should not be used after
elimination. The whip should not be used after a horse has jumped the last fence on a course.
c. Place—As an aid to go forward, the whip may be used down the shoulder or behind the rider’s
leg. As a reprimand, it must only be used behind the rider’s leg. It must never be used overhand,
e.g. a whip in the right hand being used on the left flank. The use of a whip on a horse’s head,
neck, etc., is always excessive use.
d. Severity—As a reprimand only, a horse may be hit hard. However, it should never be hit more
than three times for any one incident. If a horse is marked by the whip, e.g. the skin is broken, its
use is excessive.
3.3. SPURS—Spurs must not be used to reprimand a horse. Such use is always excessive, as is
any use that results in a horse’s skin being broken.
10 Maine Combined Training Association
3.4. BIT—The bit must never be used to reprimand a horse. Any such use is always excessive.
3.5. REPORTING—Officials must report such actions as soon as possible to the Ground Jury,
supported where possible by statements from witnesses.
3.6. GROUND JURY—If such actions are reported, the Ground Jury shall decide if there is a case
to be answered. If an individual member of the Ground Jury observes such actions, he is obliged to
disqualify the competitor forthwith on his own authority. There is no appeal against a Ground Jury’s
decision in a case of abuse.
4. DANGEROUS RIDING
4.1. Any competitor who rides in such a way as to constitute a hazard to the safety or wellbeing of
the competitor, horse, other competitors, their horses, spectators, or others will penalized
accordingly.
4.2. Any act or series of actions that in the opinion of the Ground Jury can be defined as dangerous
riding shall be penalized by 25 penalties or elimination, at the discretion of the Ground Jury. In
addition, the overall score for the horse/rider combination shall not be considered for year end
points.
4.3. If such actions are reported, the Ground Jury shall decide if there is a case to be answered. If
an individual member of the Ground Jury observes such actions, he may eliminate or penalize the
competitor forthwith on his own authority. There is no appeal against a Ground Jury decision.
4.4. The Ground Jury and the Technical Advisor have the authority to stop a rider on the cross
country course for dangerous riding, riding an exhausted horse, excessive pressing of a tired
horse, riding an obviously lame horse, excessive use of the whip and/or spurs or riding in an
unsafe way.
5. DRESS
5.1. PROTECTIVE HEADGEAR.
a. Upon arrival, wearing properly fitting protective headgear which passes or surpasses ASTM
(American Society for Testing and Materials)/SEI (Safety Equipment Institute) is compulsory for
anyone riding a horse on the flat or while jumping any obstacle. The harness must be secured and
properly fitted.
b. Violation of this rule at any time, at the discretion of the Organizer, shall be penalized
and may result in elimination.
5.2 SAFETY VESTS
a. Protective vests are mandatory when warming up for and when jumping cross country obstacles
and this includes ultimate 2 phase events.
b. Violation of this rule at any time, at the discretion of the Organizer, shall be penalized
and may result in elimination.
5.3 MEDICAL CARDS.
a. An approved and completed medical card is required any time while
jumping. It must be enclosed in a transparent, waterproof carrier. It must be securely
attached to the competitor’s upper arm on the outside of the competitor’s clothing. It must
include any relevant medical history, injury (particularly to the head), drug allergies and current
medication. Athletes are responsible to record all injuries on the card. Failure to wear
one’s own medical card shall be penalized by a fine of $10. (Payable to the Organizer)
www.maine-eventing.org 11
6. INQUIRIES. The competitor, a parent or guardian of a competitor under 18 years old, the owner
of the horse, or the owner’s agent, may inquire about any perceived irregularity or mis-scoring
during the course of the competition. Such inquiries may be addressed to the organizer, the
Ground Jury or judge or to the Technical Advisor.
DRESSAGE TEST
1. The object of Dressage is the harmonious development of the physique and ability of the horse.
As a result it makes the horse calm, supple, loose and flexible, but also confident, attentive and
keen, thus achieving perfect understanding with his rider.
2. These qualities are revealed by:
a. The freedom and regularity of the paces;
b. The harmony, lightness and ease of movements;
c. The lightness of the forehand and the engagement of the hind quarters, originating in a lively
impulsion;
d. The acceptance of the bridle, with submissiveness throughout and without any tenseness or
resistance.
3. The dressage tests to be used each year will be printed in Appendix 2. From these tests,
Organizers are free to select the specific tests to be used for their competition. The test to be used
must be printed in the prize list for the competition.
Dressage Rules
1. All tests must be carried out from memory, and all movements must follow in the order laid down
in the test.
2. The use of the voice in any way whatsoever or clicking the tongue once or repeatedly is a
serious fault involving the deduction of at least two marks from those that would otherwise have
been awarded for the movement where this occurred.
3. In case of marked lameness, the judge at C, after consultation with the other judge(s) if
appropriate, will inform the competitor that he is eliminated. There is no appeal against this
decision.
4. A horse leaving the arena completely, with all four feet, between the time of entry and the final
salute, will be eliminated.
5. Any resistance that prevents the continuation of the test longer than 20 seconds will be punished
by elimination.
6. Any outside intervention by voice, signs, etc., is considered unauthorized assistance. A
competitor receiving unauthorized assistance may be eliminated at the discretion of the Ground
Jury.
CROSS-COUNTRY TEST
1. Overtaking.- a. Any competitor who is about to be overtaken by a following competitor must
quickly clear the way. Any competitor overtaking another competitor must do so only at a safe and
suitable place.
2. Unauthorized Assistance-. Any intervention by a third party, whether solicited or not, with the
object of facilitating the task of the competitor or of helping his horse, is considered unauthorized
assistance and the competitor may be eliminated.
12 Maine Combined Training Association
SAFETY VIOLATIONS WILL NOT BE IGNORED!
Anyone the Ground Jury deems as presenting a hazard to themselves or to anyone else at the
competition may be eliminated in the interest of safety.
MeCTA tie-breaking policy: USEA events are timed and ties are often broken based on proximity
to Optimum Time. Since few MeCTA events are timed, the procedures have been instituted for
use at affiliated events:
In case of a tie: 1) the best XC score shall win.
If a tie remains: 2) the time closest to Optimum Time shall win.
If XC is not timed: 2a) the best dressage score shall win.
If a tie remains: 2b) the best Collective Marks in dressage shall win.
If a tie remains: 2c) it may be broken with a coin-toss.

MeCTA YEAR-END AWARDS
Award Year: November 17, 2014 to November 17, 2015
Eligibility: Rider must be a current member in good standing of MeCTA when points are earned.
They also must be in good financial standing with an event to earn points from that event. Points
are given to the horse and rider as a team.
Recorded Points: Only events that are open to the public and are affiliated with MeCTA (covered
by MeCTA liability insurance) and are advertised in the MeCTA Omnibus or Newsletter/Horse’s
Maine are eligible for point accumulation. Year-End points are cumulative within each year. There
is no minimum number of events required. Riders points will be recorded from each competition as
submitted by the event management.
Point System: Points from 3 Phase events will be tallied separately from 2 Phase events (which
includes Ultimate 2 Phase events). There will be separate year end awards for both categories.
Year end awards for divisions in both categories will be based on points earned by a single horse
and rider combination at their events during a calendar year. The same point system will be used
for 3 phase events and 2 phase events. Points will be awarded for the level of the division
regardless of the number of entries in the division. All MeCTA 2-phase, Ultimate 2-phase, and 3phase event points will be eligible. Points will be awarded as outlined below.
You can check results and point standings at www.maine-eventing.org.
