The Rosebowl and Charrington Cup
This competition is held with West Kent (Sevenoaks) Pony Club, for members aged 12 years and under on the day, to win a huge silver cup in memory of Mrs Charrington, former DC of West Kent Hunt Branch in the 1950’s.
It starts about 10am with Condition and Turnout, followed by Riding and Jumping. It is a social day so take a picnic and a chair and stay on for the inter-club show jumping competition in the afternoon.
Even if you are over 12 years old you can still come to the afternoon jumping, which starts about 2pm.
In 1947 West Kent Hunt Pony Club became so big and covered such a large area it set up a sub-branch of West Kent (Meopham)
In 1972 West Kent Hunt was split into two pony clubs – Meopham and Sevenoaks
