THIS coming season, more events being run by the Northern Ireland Carriage Driving Association will be staged over two days rather than one.
“There might be a problem getting stewards and scorers for two days but I think this is a good decision,” says the association’s treasurer, Sara Clinghan. “If you have a young horse or are competing with pairs or a team, with all the harnessing and unharnessing there is too much happening in one day. Also, driving is a very sociable sport and it’s nice to make a weekend out of a competition.”
