Grass roots riding

On Sunday 22 November four girls from the Pipers Corner Equestrian Team took part in the Inter-Schools Grass Roots Regional Show Jumping Championships, run by Cedars Upper School at Bury Farm Equestrian Village in Slapton, Buckinghamshire. The Grass Roots series is designed to give less experienced riders a taste of competitions.

The Team consisted of Year 7 girls, Gina M on Fionn, Emily O on Razzle Dazzle and Emma L on Brook had qualified to compete in both the 50cm and 60cm classes. 

The girls put in outstanding performance in the 50cm class and finished in a fantastic 3rd place, behind Headington School who finished 2nd and Hall Grove School who came 1st. A special mention must go to Emily O who went double clear in both classes!

Louise Patten in Year 10 on her horse Inky also took part in the Regional Championships in the 75cm Open Class. She rode a smooth and professional round.
