The rider has to take their horse through a set course which includes obstacles which may be found out on the trail - bridges to cross, gates to open and close, logs to jump over or drag.  Suitable for in hand and all levels of rider and horse.

Western Games is where the rider demonstrates their ability to safely navigate a prescribed course in the fastest time possible. Events are timed games on horseback and are individual in nature.  Various games such as Barrels, Pole Bending, Command, Key and Flag races are all great fun to participate in.  Suitable for all levels of rider and horse.

We are delighted to be hosting the event and are looking forward to a fun day hopefully in the sun

We hope to see lots of young equestrians learning and enjoying their riding - a fun and inclusive event.

A musical ride is an equine performance full of manoeuvres, choreographed to music, designed to create a flowing pattern. As the tempo of the music quickens or diminishes, so does the speed of the ride to complement it, not unlike figure skating. It might be done at the trot or lope, or a mixture of both, depending on the pattern and the music chosen.

Manoeuvres, to name a few, include: the pinwheel, thread the needle, suicide cross, posse roll, charro ladder, chevron, oblique and inverted oblique.  While there’s no set number of riders on a team, the ride works best with a number that’s divisible by four.  it’s a great way tomake memories with your horse friends and your horse.
