The Horse Agility Club courses have just come out for February and there's very exciting news for anyone who is in the Southern Hemisphere, or indeed those in the Northern Hemisphere looking for Winter Fun!!!

The club has launched a Southern Summer of Sport, which will run through February and March.  The original Summer of Sport has a Northern bias, as it runs through July and August, obviously that's Winter for our friends in the South!  Hurrah for Equal Opportunities (and more fun for everyone :-D  

The Southern Summer of Sport classes are:
  • Long Reining
  • Pairs

Long Hot Summer of Sport

7/6/2015

Yay!!!  Feeling very excited! :-D  It's time for the International Horse Agility Club's (IHAC) annual Summer of Sport :-D  The Summer of Sport first came about in 2012, inspired by the Olympic Games coming to London and comprises a number of Fun Agility classes, in addition to the usual monthly Online and Liberty League classes.  I'm very excited that Equagility is back and even more excited that a Wild Agility class has been introduced (yay!!!! :-D  If those don't appeal to you, then there's a special Junior's class; if you're sad to be too old for Juniors then there's the adult version "act your shoe size" ;-) or you could try the long reining or pairs classes.  For the more athletic equines, there's jumping or dressage.  And there's also a team element being introduced this year, in true IHAC style you can hook up with members from all around the world to form your team, you don't have to be in the same country, or at the same level, just enter the same 4 classes to be awarded a cumulative score. 

This year, the Summer of Sport has been extended from one month to two months, so more time to have fun, play with the courses and film entries :-D  So a long Summer of Sport, definitely yes.  And hot?  Well there's never any knowing what the summer weather will bring us, in the UK anyway, but the courses are definitely "hot" :-)  Lots of variety and fun ideas to choose from :-)

A Summer of Sport!

It's a tradition now for July to be "Summer of Sport" month at the International Horse Agility Club.  There are still the usual competitive league courses, these being an On Line class for each of the 5 Levels: Starter to Advanced 1 star; plus a Liberty class for 3 levels: Bronze, Silver and Gold. But, for July only, there are lots of fun and exciting "have a go" Summer of Sport classes added as well.

The Summer of Sport was first inspired by the London 2012 Olympic Games and proved so popular that it has become an exciting fixture in the Horse Agility calendar ever since.

For 2014, the Summer of Sport "have a go" classes are:
  • Long Reining
  • Pairs
  • Showjumping (online or liberty)
  • Juniors (handler to be 16 years or under), sponsored by Think Like a Pony, with rosettes and prizes for every entry
  • "World Equestrian Games" (obstacles inspired by the WEG taking place this year)
  • On Line Equagility
  • Liberty Equagility

With so much to chose from, its just a shame that there are only 4 weekends in the month!!!!!

    About me

    I started Horse Agility as a way of making groundwork more fun. It was something I could do with my semi-retired old boy and his  small, cheeky, pony companion. What amazed me was how much it improved the ponies' general confidence in the process.  I compete at Advanced 1 star level on line and at liberty.
