Tetrathlon Update

Tetrathletes outings!

The Easter holiday has a been a busy one for E&S Tetrathletes, and in keeping with the spring, the ponies have been taking part as well!!!

Newmarket and Thurlow hosted the first Tet of the year with some great results and experiences for the new season.

Boys Tri saw Alfie win with Best swim, Matthew 3^rd , Harry 4^th and Zac 5^th.  Alfie and Matthew completed the Ride phase, Matthew with a clear round and winning the section, and Alfie came 2^nd.

Junior Girls continue to be a very competitive section, Grace 4^th, Jemma 6^th and Emilia 12^th in the Tri section with Grace’s clear round and Jemma’s Ride scores, placed them 3^rd and 12^th respectively.

Mini Girls – Tatiana won the shoot, winning the Tri and Tet.

Tadpole Boys – Sonny continued to forge his winning ways (Tri and Tet) with Best Swim and clear round, Charlie with a clear round placing 6^th (Tet and Tri).

Tallulah taking 6^th place in the Tri and Tet, determined to ride by herself in the cross country.

Teams saw the Juniors win, and the Tadpoles came 3^rd.  Many E&S members also took part in the N&T hunter trial.

Easton Harriers hosted their Tri phases at Framlingham College.  More fantastic results:

Senior Boys: Fergus 3^rd, Best Shoot.

Senior Girls: Tilly  4^th, Best Shoot.

Junior Boys: Alfie 1^st (Best shoot, best swim, best run), Matthew 2^nd, Harry 4^th, Zac 5^th.

Junior Girls: Grace 2^nd overall – in fact, 2^nd at everything, Jemma 6^th with Best Swim.

Mini Girls: Tatiana 2^nd and Martha 8^th

Results following the ride; Fergus 2^nd, Tilly 2^nd, Matthew 1^st, Alfie 2^nd, Zac 3^rd, Harry 4^th, Grace 3^rd, Jemma 3^rd, Tatiana 1^st, Martha 2^nd, Tallulah 1^st, Sonny 1^st, Charlie 2^nd.

Suffice it to say, the Ride phase was over big and technical courses, with our members dealing with various challenges ranging from riding new ponies, building on previous experiences, lack of brakes, nearly jumping the wrong course, seeing a serious fall over last and being held over an hour.  Overall you were totally brilliant with decisions made, and you were totally awesome!
