The Towers Riding Team had a good start to the 2012 NSEA Season on Saturday 14th January at Sands Farm Equitation Centre in Warnham. In spite of freezing weather conditions that didn't rise below 0C for most of the day, the girls and their ponies turned out to represent the school in the biggest competition in our area to date. Towers Red Team consisting of Katie Harris (Captain), Catherine Barnwell, Holly Frazier-Mills and Gabby Morris had a fantastic day with four clear rounds in the 80cms in a fast enough time to take 4th place. This was a real achievement in such a large and competitive class which consisted of 18 teams and 20 individuals. Congratulations to the girls! |
| The day saw a number of clears from our teams and individuals including Catherine Barnwell in the 70cms, Alex Wright in the 80cms and Gabby Morris in the 90cms. Rachel Laurence, Georgina Dunlavey and Elspeth Williams also rode for the school and were unlucky to pick up enough faults for them not to be placed on this occasion but I am certain they will all have better luck at the next show. Thanks go especially to our Captain, Katie, our Trainer, Kathy Willard, and Co-Team Manager Pete Dunlavey who all spent over 9 hours at Sands Farm organising, instructing, and encouraging the girls - and to all the Mums & Dads who came to support the teams! | |
