2024 TCRG/TMRF/Grade 8-11 exams

Our venue for the 2024 TCRG/TMRF/Grade 8-11 exams for Western Europe is confirmed in London.

Exams will be held on 18th-19th May 2024 at Lingfield College, St Piers Lane, Lingfield, RH7 6PH. It is approximately a 15 minute drive from London Gatwick airport and a short footpath away from Lingfield station (connections to London Luton airport, Brighton and central London - Clapham Junction, Victoria, London Bridge).

The venue is opposite the Lingfield Park Marriott Hotel (book before the Lingfield Races schedules are announced!), otherwise there are a number of hotels between the venue and Gatwick (search Felbridge and Copthorne areas).

Entries are now open on the website. Deadline is 28/02/24.

Please note: as always we advise booking travel so that you are available for both full days. As a guide, we tend to do parts 1 & 2 on Day 1 and parts 3 & 4 on day 2 - but this always depends on the numbers of each part entered. Depending on entries, it is not always possible to take individual travel plans into account when timetabling.
