Dear Members,

Thank you to all those of you who have put your names down for Camp/Mini-Camp. Just a reminder to those whose membership runs out in July, who have their names down, that you will not be able to attend without renewing. All deposits should now have been paid and any latecomers do need to get their names down by the end of next week. The second letters will follow shortly to all those booked in. Please ensure your horse/pony annual vaccinations are all up to date.

What an amazing day the for Show Jumping team of Ellie, Gabby S, Emily O and Holly at the Pony Club Team Show Jumping Competition at Bramham. Two teams finished on a score of zero and had to jump off and YAS had another zero score to win. Congratulations to the team – you were brilliant! The next day at Bramham was the first time for a Pony Club Mini/Major show jumping competition – YAS had two ‘majors’ – Ellie and Ella – and two ‘minis’ – Amber and Lucinda – who all jumped really well, with Amber and her partner finishing 2nd and Ellie and her partner 4th. Fingers crossed this competition will run again next year!

The Area 3 Show Jumping was held last weekend at Bishop Burton and YAS had a good number of entries – well done to everyone concerned. Two teams qualified for the National Championships in the PC90 class – Sophia, Ellie, Gabby S, Hugo came 2nd and Amelia, Lucinda, Amber, Gabby M came 3rd with individual qualifications also for Ellie and Amber. In the PC100 class, we also had two teams qualifying – Ellie, Zac, Harry, Amelia came 1st and Ellie, Holly, Gabby S, Sophia came 3rd, with individual qualifications for Harry and Ellie with both Carlow and Jessica. (Jessica then went on to the lead rein PC40 with Thomas to finish 6th!) The PC110 team – Zac, Harry, Holly, Ellie – also qualified and finished 2nd.

This weekend is the Area 3 Regional Show Jumping and the weekend after is the Area 3 Dressage – best of luck to all involved. Area Tetrathlon at the beginning of July and Area 3 Eventing in the middle of July. Do remember to take your equine vaccination record with you as spot checks will be carried out. Also make sure any new hats have a pink tag, as well as a yellow tag for those wearing spurs, who have done a spurs assessment or who hold their C+ test.
