Congratulations to Aisling O'B. and Saidhbh S. for passing their B tests !!!

Our Junior  team of Kirsty C., Sara C., Jill O'G., and Gavin S. won the national IPC Red Mills Horse Trials Championships!

Jill won her arena, Gavin came 2nd in his, and Sara placed 4th in hers.

The competition was very close and they could not even afford a time fault when going cross-country.

This is an incredible achievement especially at Tattersalls since it is an exceptionally difficult course with a very tight time limit and Meath are usually the favourites.

Congratulations to all four!

These are the WWPC results from this year's IPC Tetrathlon competition:

Colum McC.'s team won the Senior Boys!!!

Claire McA. and Beverley M.'s team came 4th in the Senior Girls!!!

Our Junior Girls team of Eimear O'B., Jennifer H., Clíona R., and Kate F. came 7th!!!

Anthony McA. and Denis McD.'s Junior Boys team came 14th!!!

There are a large number of teams in the Tetrathlon and the first ten teams place in this competition.

We got an excellent result this year and the best ever so all the hard training did pay off in the end.

Congratulations to all who participated!
