The Eventing Team at UGA is thrilled to announce the second annual Intercollegiate Team Challenge to take place at Chattahoochee Hills Horse Trials in Fairburn, GA. The challenge will be run in conjunction with the horse trials on October 26th & 27th.
All colleges are encouraged to send multiple teams to compete for the title of intercollegiate champion! Teams can consist of 3 riders or 4 including a drop score with any combination of levels, beginner novice through intermediate. At the end of the weekend, individual scores will be multiplied by the set level coefficient to get the total team score. All the college teams will be stabled together throughout the weekend and will be invited to the intercollegiate award ceremony-taking place Sunday afternoon in the main arena.
In addition to coming out and supporting the students, alumni are encouraged to create teams of their own to compete in an Alumnae Challenge. We look forward to seeing colleges represented in large numbers in a friendly competition as the collegiate aspect of eventing continues to grow!
