The Chiddingly Horse Show and Gymkhana is now in its 54th Year.  A Gymkhana (derived from the Urdu word for "racket court") is an Indian term for a place where sporting events take place and refers to any of various meets at which contests are held to test the skill of the competitors, such as in the sports of equestrianship, gymnastics, or sports car racing.

In the United Kingdom, the term gymkhana now almost always refers to an equestrian event, often with the emphasis on children's participation (such as those organised by the Pony Club), although in the past the word was sometimes used for motorsport events.

 

In equestrian competitions, gymkhana classes are timed speed events such as barrel racing, keyhole, keg race (also know as "down and back"), and pole bending.  The Chiddingly event includes: Jumping, Showing, Novice Corner & Gymkhana Events, Working Hunter, Mountain & Moorland, Handy Pony, Clear Round, Fancy Dress, Pleasure Driving and Cones Driving
