National Schools Equestrian Championships
Having qualified for ten finals in total, riders from our equestrian team took part in the National Schools Equestrian Championships from Friday 20 to Monday 23 October in Addington, Bucks; each rider took part in three to five finals each.
This meant that our riders were exceptionally busy, as the Showjumping finals meant two rides due to the top ten best scoring teams having to ride again for final positions. However, it made the competition very exciting!

Congratulations to all of our students, these were absolutely amazing results particularly as they were up against the best riding schools in the UK.
Our students were all great ambassadors for Woodbridge School, working together as a team and supporting one another.
Riders will be competing again on 26 November in order to qualify for Hickstead in May next year.
