Currently, there are limited opportunities for Interschool Show Horse competitions in Victoria.

The Equestrian Victoria State Championship classes offer a pathway to the Australian Interschool Championship competition and are run in a standard format with all riders having three phases, with workouts, as individuals. Cumulative scores decide Championships and placings. The top four competitors in Primary and Secondary divisions of Show Horse, Show Hunter and Working Hunter classes are selected in the Victorian team.

Some smaller regional events and Agricultural Shows may offer Interschool classes which are run in a similar manner to open rings, but fall in the categories and clothing relevant to Interschool competition. Age groups are run in school year levels. The ISV calendar will include competitions with Interschool Show Horse classes.

Equestrian Australia publishes a set of National Interschool Show Horse Rules, including details and workouts. These rules can be found in the Rules, Regulations and Policies section.
