AFTER a fantastic season which saw them win the silver medal at the FEI European Championships, the Irish eventing team were named as runners-up in the Team Of The Year category by the Olympic Federation of Ireland at the 2025 Team Ireland Olympic Sport Awards last Saturday night at the Royal Convention Centre.

Team members Padraig McCarthy, Aoife Clark and Robbie Kearns, as well as chef d’equipe Dagg Albert, flew in from their bases in England to join Irish-based Ian Cassells on a night of fun and celebrating out of the jodhpurs.
