This rule defines the quality of manufacture that is required. The individual sports also have additional requirements with regard to colour and type. It is strongly recommended that second hand hats are not purchased.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1173\" src=\"https:\/\/branches.pcuk.org\/cotley\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/323\/2024\/03\/thumbnail_IMG_6045-250x185.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"185\" srcset=\"https:\/\/branches.pcuk.org\/cotley\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/323\/2024\/03\/thumbnail_IMG_6045-250x185.jpg 250w, https:\/\/branches.pcuk.org\/cotley\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/323\/2024\/03\/thumbnail_IMG_6045-700x519.jpg 700w, https:\/\/branches.pcuk.org\/cotley\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/323\/2024\/03\/thumbnail_IMG_6045-768x569.jpg 768w, https:\/\/branches.pcuk.org\/cotley\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/323\/2024\/03\/thumbnail_IMG_6045-120x89.jpg 120w, https:\/\/branches.pcuk.org\/cotley\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/323\/2024\/03\/thumbnail_IMG_6045.jpg 876w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>For cross-country riding (at all levels) including Eventing, Arena Eventing, Tetrathlon and Hunter Trials,<br \/>\ntogether with Pony Racing (whether it be tests, rallies, competition or training) and Mounted Games<br \/>\ncompetitions, a jockey skull cap must be worn with no fixed peak, peak type extensions or noticeable<br \/>\nprotuberances above the eyes or to the front, and should have an even round or elliptical shape with a<br \/>\nsmooth or slightly abrasive surface, having no peak or peak type extensions.
