Page 8/37NOMINATE EQUESTRIAN APP - ONCE YOU ARE REGISTERED
You will need to login to the Nominate Equestrian App. It comes up with 4
buttons and 1 of these is a check-in button. At the gate entry you will find
a QR code, this is to scan after you click on the check-in button. It will
record your details and your time of entry. Once you have scanned, you
will notice the “check-in” button becomes “check-out”. On leaving the
event you will need to click the check-out button.
The Nominate Equestrian App has been in use for a number of
competitions. It is expected that everyone has the App on their phones to
ensure check in and check out procedures run smoothly and are not
delayed.
BIOSECURITY
For information in relation to travel permits & spraying please contact your
local Department of Primary Industries. It is a requirement for entry to
this event that all competitors provide a current Horse Health
Declaration form for each horse entering the showgrounds.
A new Equestrian Qld HHD Form is required upon check in every
time a horse is brought onto the grounds. You must submit your
Horse Health Declaration when checking onto the grounds at
gate 2.
The Horse Health Declaration form can be found at
http://www.qld.equestrian.org.au/sites/default/files/EQ%20Horse%
20Health%20Declaration.pdf.
Biosecurity legislation requires we all must keep Movement Records when
we take our horses somewhere. A Movement Record can take many forms
– it can be a written note in a diary, a horse health declaration form, a
note in your smartphone, etc. It needs to record the date of the horse
movement, a description of the horse, the property of origin (including
PIC), where you are going (including PIC), and who completed the record.
You are required to keep these records for 2 years.
The Horse Health Declaration form that you will be required to submit at
Check In can also be your Movement Record, however, as we require you
to submit your Horse Health declaration form to us, you will need to take a
copy of the form, e.g. photo with your phone. You will also need to create
a Movement Record for your trip home.
Please ensure you have provided a PIC number and that you enter this PIC
number on your nomination form.
*A wrist band will be issued to all attendees that will be on site, on
receipt of the Horse Health Declaration form at check in. This is to
ensure all attendees are registered as per COVID-19 Government
Health Guidelines. ** Additionally riders must wear their wrist
band to allow the rider to pass through gear check during this
event. NO ARMBAND = NO RIDE.
Page 9/37Horses-do not bring sick horse/s to this venue. Practise good biosecurity
before, during and after going to an event. Horses must not be tied to
any fences or trees. Horses must NOT enter the camping areas. Do not
erect electric tape or portable yards. Do not dump manure from trucks/

cleaning fee is charged for stables or yards not left clean after the event
and any stable waste and manure not deposited at the designated stable
waste site. Horses, when not being ridden, must be kept in allocated

Horses are allocated a number on the Draw. This number MUST be
displayed on the horse’s halter, bridle or saddle pad, whenever the horse
is taken out of its stable or yard and is being led, ridden, competed or
lunged on the grounds at an event.

choice between classes if there is a time clash. The total classes allowed will
not include Eventing and Combined Training as it is held at a separate

Riders are asked to consider the welfare of the horse when considering their
state classes. The organising committee reserves the right to discuss the
number of entries for a horse/rider combination per day if they have
concerns.
Page 19/37A rider can enter a maximum of two horses in each discipline
providing that each horse/rider combination is qualified
• Dressage - each horse can compete in a maximum of two
classes across the event. A class is two dressage tests at one level.
For riders entering two classes on a horse, these classes must be at
consecutive levels. Each Rider may also enter one freestyle class pro-
vided they have competed the same level in the championship class
and no more than 3 tests in one day is observed.

committee. No rider may be substituted for another rider
Important note for riders wishing to compete in more than one
discipline:
The organising committee will endeavour to structure the draws
such that riders may compete in two disciplines on the same day,
but riders must understand that, if this is not possible, they may
have to prioritise one discipline over the other.

the draw at events from midday on the day prior to the event commencing
until conclusion of the final discipline on the last day of the event.
This includes at any mounted presentations. This ruling applies even if a
horse has completed its competitions at an event.
The exception to this ruling is that a horse can be ridden by more than one
sibling rider at an event in different disciplines and the horse does not
compete in more than the maximum number of tests/sections allowed in the
day by EA discipline rules (eg, no more than 3 dressage tests in one day).

result in disqualification from the competition and depending on the severity
of the offence, the athlete and/or their associates may face disciplinary
action.

Page 25/37Helper Jobs
Each rider will be required to nominate a helper for the event. This is a
compulsory requirement. Once again, we are using the ‘Sign-Up’ App to
manage our helpers roster. Please access the website or download the app
and familiarise yourself with it. It is easy to use and it allows you to choose
jobs that suit your schedule, rider draw and family. This system was used at
the 2020 States & Nationals and it worked very well.
How it will work:
All available jobs will be listed in the ‘Sign-Up’ App, the link will be
emailed out to all riders & will be on Social Media. The Sign Up will
open on Saturday 19th June 6.00pm (draws will be open). It will
close Tuesday 22 June Midday (3 days after opening). Job choice will be
on a ‘first in’ basis. To ensure you obtain your preferred jobs/times it is
advised you sign up early.
You are required to sign up for 1 job per child .
If families do not select their jobs by the close-off point on Tuesday 22 June
at Midday they will be allocated a job from any remaining jobs. Reminders
will be sent prior to the opening and closing of the ‘Sign-Up’
roster, but we ask you to take responsibility for signing up within the
required timeframes.
We will post the completed ‘Sign-Up’ roster at the venue and the ‘Sign Up’
App will send out automatic reminders so ensure you check your emails.
It is the responsibility of each rider and their helper to ensure that they
check the ‘Sign-Up’ roster and complete their nominated tasks or find an
appropriate substitute person to do so.
Helper Sign In Procedure at Event
Helpers must register at the nominated area prior to the start of their allo-
cated job. This will be different for different disciplines so consult the final
published roster to see where you need to go.
FAILURE TO DO HELPER JOB
If the helper fails to arrive for duty as per the roster, the rider’s name will be
forwarded to the IQ State Committee on the day of the competition and the
rider will be ineligible for placings or points for that competition.
The rider will NOT be eligible for prizes at the State Championships and will
be automatically considered as riding HC for the event. This will mean the
rider will also be ineligible for the 2021 Queensland Team. In addition, the
IQ Committee will notify the rider’s school.
Please do not put the committee or your child in this situation.
If you need to scratch from the Event you MUST try to find a
replacement for your job and inform the IQ Events Secretary with
who your replacement is.
IQ Events Secretary - Emily Ballard 0400 780 180 (text only) or email
interschoolqld.secretaryevents@gmail.com
If you do not try to find a replacement you will be charged a $50 fee which
will be deducted from your refund and the IQ Committee will notify the
rider’s school. If you have endeavoured to find a replacement but are having
difficulty or if your are scratching due to an emergency please contact the IQ
Events Secretary ASAP who will assist you.
Page 26/37Horse Welfare
Horse abuse in any form will not be tolerated. If horse abuse is determined
the athlete will be disqualified from the competition. The sighting of blood
on the horse during a test, whether wet or dry, will entail elimination and/or
investigation by the Ground Jury/Technical Delegate based upon the Sport
Rules of the discipline involved.
Soundness
The Judges are required to satisfy themselves regarding soundness of all
horses and therefore have the authority to stop an unsound horse during the
competition or from competing – any disputes in this area will be considered
by the ground jury on the day and/or the Technical Delegate. For Dressage
there is no appeal against this decision.
Clean Sport
Now is the time for a reminder that the use of prohibited substances in your
horse is not tolerated and riders must be aware that random swabbing of
horses may occur at random and will be conducted at any of these
events. You should consult with your Vet regarding any current treatment
and should be aware of the potential risk of self- administration of prohibited
substances.
The FEI publishes a caution against the use of herbal supplements and
products of which the ingredients are unknown. The use of any substance to
affect the performance of a horse in a calming (tranquillising) or an
energising (stimulant) manner is forbidden. The use of a calming product
during competition may also have important safety consequences.
All controlled or banned substances can be found here:
http://www.equestrian.org.au/medication-control
There is also a smart phone FEI App you can download to your phone or
access the web site here: http://www.fei.org/fei/cleansport/horses.
Saddlery and Equipment
MARSHALLING/GEAR CHECK. A designated marshalling/gear check will
be made available and is compulsory for all competitors prior to their entry
in each phase of every class. Competitors are to check into marshalling
15 minutes prior to ride time. Competitors may not compete until they have
been cleared through marshalling/gear check.
NOTE: Wristbands must be worn to be cleared through gear check.
For Dressage, riders may undertake their gear check process up to 30 mins
prior to ride time. This is to allow those riders that so choose, to have an
uninterrupted warm-up period prior to their test. Where possible, marshalls
will assist riders to move through to their correct ring at the correct time,
but this is primarily the responsibility of the rider.
Page 27/37All equipment must comply with EA regulations for the particular
discipline. It is the responsibility of the competitor and/or parents to ensure
that saddlery and equipment is in good repair, meets the relevant safety
standards, is fitted appropriately and meets the regulations for that
event. It is not the responsibility of the volunteers at Marshalling/
gear check. Please refer to the illustrations of allowable equipment and
information in the EA Rule Books and the information specific to each
discipline in the IQ 2021 handbook.
Uniform
All riders must be in their full school approved equestrian competition
uniform (including helmet, team caps & horse saddle pads).
This is considered appropriate protocol for a State Championship and the
committee expects schools, riders and their parents to support this
expectation. In Show Jumping Course walks, riders are to be attired in full
competition uniform including helmet & crop.
NB ** Failure to comply with this rule will result in any awards,
points or ribbons being forfeited**
Dress for Riders
Riders competing in an EA competition, must wear an approved helmet with
the chin strap fastened at all times. The same is recommended when riding a
horse at any time. Protective headgear must conform with one of the current
approved safety standards:
• Current Australian standard AS/NZS 3838 (2006 onwards) provided
they are SAI Global marked.
• New Australian standard ARB HS 2012 provided they are SAI Global
marked.
• Current American standards ASTM F1163 (2004a or 04a onwards)
provided they are SEI marked.
• Current American standard SNELL E2001.
• Current British standard PAS 015 (1998 or 2011) provided they are
BSI Kitemarked.
• Interim European Standard VG1 (01.040: 2014-12) with or without
BSI Kitemark.
Helmet Tagging:
As part of a new safety initiative, all participants at Interschool events will be
required to have their helmet tagged. From the commencement of IQ State
Championships on 28 June 2021 it will be compulsory for participants at IQ
events, to ride with a tagged helmet, regardless of discipline.
A helmet tagging steward or designated person will be available at the IQ
office from 7-8am and at the conclusion of presentation each day.
Remember, the EA tag does not verify that the helmet is safe or in working
order. It only verifies that the helmet complies with the specific standards as
mandated by the EA Rules. Riders are strongly encouraged to check their
helmet regularly (even if it is tagged). And replace their helmets if they have
been damaged or impacted in a fall.
Body Protectors
Body Protectors for jumping elements are not compulsory under EA rules.
The IQ strongly recommends their use in the interest of safety.

IQ Handbook 2021 National Dressage rules 2021
Page 30/37Qualifying criteria for Dressage:
1. The qualifying period is the 12 months preceding the closing date of entries for State
Championship (see section 14.2). Due to the COVID-19 interruptions of 2020 and the delay of
the State Championships to October 2020. The qualifying period for the 2021 State Champi-
onships will be from 25 June 2020 until close of nominations for the 2021 IQ State Champion-
ships.
2. All riders should submit a minimum of 3 IQ test scores from at least 2 IQ events in the level
at which they wish to participate (noting the exceptions in points 7 & 8). Riders are reminded
that ONLY events listed on the IQ calendar are approved IQ qualifying events (noting the ex-
ception outlined below in the next point).
3. Riders competing at Advanced, PSG or Inter I may use qualifiers from any EA two-star
events, due to a lack of IQ events with classes at these levels. However, if IQ events with clas-
ses at these levels are run, riders are encouraged to support them.
4. For Secondary Senior and Secondary Intermediate classes at the Preliminary and Novice
level, at least one of these submitted scores is required to be 58% with the other scores being
a minimum of 55%.
5. For Secondary Senior and Secondary Intermediate classes at Elementary level and above,
all three scores are required to be a minimum of 55%.
6. For Primary classes, all three scores are required to be a minimum of 55%.
7. Year 12 riders may submit 2 test scores from any IQ event at their chosen level. These
scores will be divided by 2 for balloting purposes. At the Preliminary and Novice level, at least
one of these submitted scores is required to be 58% with the other scores being a minimum
of 55%. At Elementary level and above, both scores are required to be a minimum of 55%.
8. Riders from the regions allowing a reduced number of qualifiers may submit 2 test scores
from any IQ events at their chosen level. These scores will be divided by 2 for balloting pur-
poses. Preliminary and Novice - at least one of these submitted scores is required to be 58%
with the other scores being a minimum of 55%. Elementary and above - both scores are re-
quired to be a minimum of 55%. Results from EA Competitive and Participant competitions
may be considered for riders from these regions. If riders do not have EA scores, they are en-
couraged to send in any scores they have for the IQ Convenor’s consideration. Regions re-
quiring reduced numbers of qualifiers are listed in section 3.2.2.
9. Please note: Whilst all qualifying performances will be considered in the nomination pro-
cess for the State Championships, this does not imply that riders with scores achieving the
minimum standards are guaranteed a place. Balloting will be undertaken if entry numbers
exceed class size limits. If classes reach maximum numbers, and balloting is required, the 3
scores will be added together and divided by 3 to get an average score to allow for ranking of
the top qualifiers, who will be invited to participate (average of 2 scores in the cases men-
tioned in points 7 & 8 above).
10. Classes will be limited to 35 riders however there may be fewer accepted at the discretion
of the OC depending on scheduling constraints and entry standards. The OC reserves the
right to refuse an entry if it is deemed to be of insufficient standard for the event and the lev-
el entered. If nominations exceed the quota set by the OC, a reserve list may be kept.
11. For riders who have not gained the correct qualifications for the State Championships and
wish to apply for special consideration to participate, please see section 14.3 of the IQ hand-
book for further details.
Page 31/37Class Numbers will be Capped
Class numbers will be limited and entries will be ranked to determine ac-
ceptances for any classes with entries over the class limit of 35. Qualifying
test scores will be averaged and the 35 highest ranking qualifiers will be
invited to compete.
Total Freestyle numbers (across Novice, Elementary, Medium, Ad-
vanced and Inter 1) may also be limited. The cap is yet to be deter-
mined and will depend on the final schedule but a cap of 20 freestyle riders
may be imposed. If this occurs, and entries exceed the capped number,
then the entries will be ranked to determine acceptances for classes. Riders
may only enter one freestyle class which is the equivalent level to the
straight dressage tests they are competing in.
Important note for riders wishing to compete in both the Dressage
and Showjumping events:
Rings WILL NOT BE HELD
for riders coming from Showjumping to Dressage or vice versa.
YOU MAY BE REQUIRED TO MAKE A PREFERENCE ON THE DAY.

with the National Show Horse Rules wherever possible, however some varia-
tions have been necessary to meet Interschool competition requirements.
Judged under current EA SHOW HORSE RULES.
Competitors please note: to reduce the impact of clashes, classes for
Show Horse will be run in the following order-
1) Ridden
