Wow. What a fantastic weekend at the Horse First TREC Ireland National Championships. Held in the stunning venue of Stradbally Hall, the weekend was full of challenging POR routes, thrilling PTV courses and tasty social dinners. Nobody can deny it was a well-run and fun-filled weekend with a plethora of prizes to be given out at the end, including some very generous hampers (or buckets!) filled with goodies from the sponsors.

A massive well done to all our riders, including Rohan Madhavan, Katie Smyth, Ailbhe Gavin, Lorna O'Neill, Sheila Fuller, Catherine Bartley, Paula Donohue, Marie Gallagher, Louise Parkhill and Louise Parkes who all got placed during the prize giving on Sunday. And also, huge congratulations to our very own Diana O'Huid and her horse, Coolroe Gold, who not only came second in the Level 2 Pairs, but also won the Grangeclare Cup, an annual trophy awarded to an Irish rider with the highest overall score from the weekend. Check out TREC Ireland on Facebook for more great photos.

We have some very exciting news!  We have managed to book Punchestown for our Leinster TREC 3-phase 1-day event in October!!!  I think you will all agree that this will be a fantastic venue - lots and lots of space for all three phases!


SO...... PLEASE PUT SUNDAY 12TH OCTOBER 2014 IN YOUR DIARIES IMMEDIATELY FOR WHAT PROMISES TO BE A GREAT DAY! And yes, this is a change of date. Hope it still suits! More details to follow in the coming months
