TRISH Carey, secretary of Eventing Ireland’s amateur committee, here explains how the organisation’s Pathways Training Weekends evolved and we learn how enjoyable and educational they have proven to be.

“The idea of the training camps was born when I started at my first event in 2017. I arrived knowing no one, hadn’t a clue if I would be completely out of my league, didn’t know what to expect or how anything worked on the day – I found it all very overwhelming.
