Tryouts
Tryouts for the upcoming year will begin the week after classes start. An informational meeting will be held for all students interested in trying out for the team during the first week of classes and then riders will be able to sign up for a tryout time either individually or in small groups.
This year we are looking for riders of all skill levels in both disciplines, hunter seat and western horsemanship. We welcome riders of all different backgrounds as well as riders who have little to no show experience or riders who have show experience all the way up to a National level. Our team is looking to expand our program this year, but we do not have a set number of "slots" available. The team will add as many riders as our coach feels will help aid the team in competition this year.
Becoming a Member
Students who don't have experience but would like to learn to ride, or students who would like to come out and ride during our team practices can take lessons with the coach at the price of $40 per lesson. You may then try out for the team at the next set of tryouts.
Students who do have riding experience but did not try out, or are unsure they want to try out may take lessons with the team during scheduled practices. Arrangements can be made by contacting Michelle Stephenson at [email protected].
