Development Squad

Our team with our lovely coach Paula Coward (pictured second from the left)

Our two development squads compete in a friendly league with other universities in the South West. These competitions are run in exactly the same way as BUCS however do not contribute to the university BUCS points. They are an amazing way to develop your skills, and compete in a friendly environment before progressing to the BUCS level.  

Each team attends four competitons throughout the year, both at home, and away. You will be riding a variety of different horses, and learning to adapt your riding style accordingly. Each competiton consists of a dressage test, and a jumping round (normally around 80cm). If you are interested, please make sure to sign up to our team trials at the beginning of next year! 

Trials will be on the 11th October with more information on the facebook page. Look out for the trials product on the products page from the beginning of October.

Our teams have consistently done well, and individuals have consistently been moved up to the BUCS league after strong performances.
