Three days, 13 new national champions, 135 drivers, 171 horses and ponies... The 2018 Indoor Finals, run by Rita Bundock and Dick Carey and their team of amazing volunteers, is over!
Hours, days, weeks of work go into making the Championships a success.
Months and years of training go into the drivers, ponies and horses...
Six months of 107 regional competitions run by local clubs and volunteers all over the UK have been supported by 2592 starters.
Thank you all for taking part, organising, backstepping, judging, writing, stewarding, timing, scoring, obstacle building, course designing, helping, cheering, turning up in the depths of winter - still smiling.
Special thanks are due to Rita and Dick for making it all happen and for all the volunteers at the Finals who quietly keep things going behind the scenes.
(And Sarah Owlett raised £541 for the prostate cancer charity.)
I hope we'll see you all again next season! |
