Free show jumping course designer — FEI & BS validation, no card needed.
Design, validate and print show jumping courses in 2D (3D when you need it)
YardForge is free UK show jumping course design software for club builders, instructors and British Showjumping course designers. Place fences on a scaled 2D arena, check strides automatically, validate against British Showjumping and FEI tables, then print multi-role plans before anyone moves a pole. Free during alpha — no card.
What is show jumping course design software?
Course design software lets you plan a show jumping track on a scaled digital arena instead of dragging real poles around. You place fences, set heights and spreads, measure related distances as strides, check competition rules, and export plans for builders, judges and athletes. YardForge is that tool in the browser for UK club work.
