The BE 2* League, sponsored by Gatehouse Hats, takes points won by eligible riders at CCI2*-S and CCI2*-L events in the UK. The top five riders at the end of the season take home a share of an impressive prize package, including Gatehouse products.
Following the update to the FEI classification codes from 1 January 2019 the league has been renamed to 2* League, having been previously known as the 1* League.
Eligibility
To be eligible for the league riders must never have ridden at 4* level and points are amassed as a horse and rider combination at CCI2*-S and CCI2*-L events in the UK.
