British Eventing (BE) has confirmed small entry fee increases next season.
Entry fees will rise by £1 at BE80, BE90 and BE100 level and by 2.5% for novice and above. Day tickets will be kept at 2011 prices.
BE said the increase was “well below inflation” and had been kept to a minimum.
But one BE member, Stella Bayliss, told H&H she did not think prices should have gone up across the board.
“I think they should have put up entry fees at the more popular events – the events at stately homes and those that get balloted.”
