Intrepid four – Nikki Toomer, Lucy Filby, Sally Vickers and Juliet Foden set off into the mountains of Wales to compete in the Team Competition organised by Llandudno RC. The weather was surprisingly good considering all the rain we had during the previous days; so was the going.

Our Team won!

Thus qualifying for the Championships at Aston-Le-Wolds at the end of May.

Sally won the preliminary section with a good dressage and clear round; Juliet came fifth. Nikki was third in the novice section. The team was ably supported by Lucy who was unplaced.

Thanks to Libby who acted as chef d’equip and helper. Also many thanks to all those who came to cheer us on!

Unfortunately, the show jumping due to be held on Saturday April 5th has been cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances.

Please note that due to the destructive tendencies of Jocelyn’s pony (!), she has been without her mobile phone since Friday – if you’ve made an entry between Friday and Monday to her mobile phone, please re-send your message to confirm it is in. She now has a temporary phone and is on the same number. Email entries and entries to her landline should have been received fine.

Best of luck to Libby Richards, Sue O’Leary, Sally Filby and Nicki Toomer – off to Hartpury this weekend to represent the club (and have a lot of fun no doubt!) at the National Winter Show Jumping Championships.

Alsager are holding a fun team show jumping competition on April 19th. Further details available here.

There will be a clear round at 70cm to start the jumping on Sunday – anyone wanting to do a round must be ready to jump at 10am. Cost per round: £5.

If you’re interested in being in any of our teams, please get in touch. All you need to have is enthusiasm (and a horse)!!

There are more details on being on teams and each discipline on the Being in a team page.
