Teams run in a ‘drawn order’ two teams at a time over a ‘mirror imaged’ course of obstacles against the clock with 5 time penalties for each fence down. First riders start the clock as they cross the line, complete the course and hand a baton (whip) to the next rider until all four have competed and rider number four stops the clock as they cross the line.
The winning team goes forward to the next round and the process is repeated until the final two remaining teams battle it out to determine a winner. For more information please email foh@eastofengland.org.uk.
