The BEF has launched two new schemes to help talented riders along the path to international success
Forty riders aged between 10 and 32 have been selected to join the British Equestrian Federation’s (BEF) World Class Start and Potential programmes in this the development year for the scheme.
The long-term plan is to provide each rider with an entire “toolkit” of skills, experience, knowledge and information to equip them to win at senior and international level.
“World Class Start and Potential are the first two steps in a three-stage, long-term plan to win medals,” explains Victoria Kind, manager of the World Class Start and Potential programmes. “This will provide our most talented riders with the best opportunities and support to maximise their competitive potential.”
Coaches Andy Austin (SJ), Gill Watson and Kenneth Clawson (eventing), Ferdi Eilberg and Ian Woodhead (dressage) and Hilary Hughes (Paralympic dressage) will help develop individual plans for each of the riders.
