YERSJ

[Malibu]

Got the leaflet and entry form on YERSJ today in the post and i think i would like have ago at it with RU. So just wondering if anyone has done it (boss)? What did you think if it etc?

 

[Hattikins]

a real bummer - wanted to do it but not one of the three venues is remotely close to me

ahh well

 

[Deefa]

ok, dumb moment!

What is it?

 

[Malibu]

Young Event Riders Show-jumping for 14-25, the age was extended from 21 to 25. It like a training session then competition and who ever wins recieves a free training session.

 

[Hattikins]

showjumping master classes for 14 to 25 yr olds organised by BE and they do pony, intro and PN classes

Young Event Rider Show Jumping.

I did it, and didn't find it of any use what so ever!! by all means have a go tho.. it's a SJing trip.

 

[Deefa]

Is it i a litle like Grasshoppers then, just for young riders? Where can i find the info?

 

[Hattikins]

yup it is really and there is info on the british eventing website under events and then "series" i think

 

[Malibu]

Long drive??? it was held at my local indoor arena (for BSJA), so not a long drive!!

I'm guessing things have changed a bit since i did it.. i did it the first year they ever held it.. it was only for under 21s, you got to walk the course with the judge/trainer first, then do your round, you were marked for faults or clear rounds, and for style, although i think style made up more of the mark.

 

[KatB]

Lol!!

Are you doing grasshoppers hon?

 

[Deefa]

I will be taken the ginger veteran to the pre-novice grasshoppers on 18th at solihull

 

[KatB]

Cool! good luck!

 

[vic07]

the year i did it, it was big!

 

[Hattikins]

yup im taking the ginger baggage and possibly Fiddler to do the intro at golden cross

 

[KatB]

Fab! look forward to the pics and results...

i mean a long drive for me! if it is not that great then too long to travel for not much! may as well just get sj training session myself

 

[seaofdreams]

Hx

 

[sw123]

Think i might go to one of the Cheshire ones at Stef Thompson's yard

 

[RobinHood]

I got the leaflet through too but all the venues are absolutely miles away.

 

[rafi]

I did it a few years ago and won so qualified for champs..but could not go. Got judged on rhythm, planning turns and riding straight to fences and keeping in a balance forward stride..which I know is easier said than done. Worth doing as something to put on your horse and your CV, and you might win. Good luck

 

[Nic]

Hi hun, are you doing the scottish one?

Might have a go with Dubs & DA

 

[Bossanova]

I did it couple of years ago, was good to jump the decent sized track twice but I found the 'trainer' useless and not constructive at all- I'd rather pay for my own trainer.
