Mini Champs- Bicton- 24th August 2023

What an amazing day at the Area 14, 15 and 16 mini champs at Bicton today.

A great performance from all our members.

The Fourburrow Tigers team of Tilda, Lilia, Edward and Toby came 2nd, just missing out on 1st position to a team from area 9.

Toby came tenth in the 40cm unassisted.

Our members were out of the placings for the 50cm competition, but rode amazingly well with neat and tidy rounds. Our 50cm team consisted of Jennifer (riding a pony she has only sat on twice before), Tilda, Edward and Lilia, with Toby riding as an individual.

Hugo represented us as an individual in 40cm lead rein, putting in a pair of clear rounds- he might need a faster leader should he ever end up in a lead rein class again, as he was flying!

Skye represented the branch in the 40cm unassisted having previously ridden in the lead rein class here. Her riding was superb with such confidence and determination. Not in the placings this time, but watch this space- she will be soon.

Every member a real asset to the club, with everyone showing great sportsmanship throughout.

Thank you to Emily as many of the team today had worked with you at camp. And thank you to Sophie who has been working with many of the members through our showjumping rallies this summer.
