Spring Festival Qualifier for Arena Cross Country and Dressage- 18th February 2026

Fourburrow Pony Club hosted the Area 16 spring festival qualifiers for arena cross country and dressage on the 18th February at Colraine Equestrian Centre. 

We would like to thank everyone who helped as there was a lot of work going into this show, which was organised by Sophie M, as part of her gold YELA award. All help is always gratefully received as it requires so many volunteers and YELA members.
