About the Sport:
The Equestian Team has had great success representing Aquinas College at local and regional events. We have even had students competing in their chosen discipline at national and international competitions. In the past, our students have been involved in all disciplines; from dressage to show jumping, to one day eventing, gymkhanas and games. We encourage students to give the school competitions a go and to strive for excellence at their own level, wherever that may be. We also encourage students to become a member of their local Pony Club, as this is such a valuable place to gain good horsemanship skills.
Pre-requisites:
It is expected that you have your own pony/horse or have easy access to one. You would have to have access to transport for your pony/horse. You will need to provide all the necessary equipment.
