Ten colleagues of the Club's Public Riding Schools recently took off to Nanjing to join the National Technical Officer Training Course from 6 to 10 September 2006, as arranged by the China Olympic Association & Equestrian Events (Hong Kong) of The Games of The XXIX Olympiad Company Ltd.  The course aimed to prepare stewards and fence judges for the coming Olympic Games Equestrian Eventing Competition.  It included two days of classroom theory and two days of practical on site Cross-country stewarding and jump judging. The course finished with an examination, and all of our candidates succeeded in passing the examination.
