THE Amateur Committee of Eventing Ireland ran four residential camps between Castle Leslie and Ross House this year, with coaching from Dale Roberts and Robert Mundy, and are planning more training and camps for the year ahead.

Over Christmas new perpetual bronze horse head trophies, kindly sponsored by the Brown family, will be wending their way to the winners of this year’s Amateur leagues. Symone Brown, a popular and active competitor on the Amateur circuit, was delighted to give something back to the sport and this gesture is much appreciated by the Committee and her fellow competitors.
