It’s nearly time to tune in to support our young British riders as they compete at Olomouc in the Czech Republic (13 – 19 July).
Five days of top-class dressage are due to get underway on Wednesday 15 July, with eight young riders due to compete across the Junior and Children’s competition, campaigning for team and individual medals.
The Children on Horses team, comprised of Amelia Dovey, Sebastian Houlston, Isabelle Stuart and Stalla McComb will be hunting for our first Children on Horse’s team medal in British Dressage history. You can read more about each of the riders in our 'Meet The Team' story, which can be found here.
The Junior team, comprised of seasoned European Championship riders Sofia Games, Ella-Grace Dovey, Oriana McNamara and Isla Sully will be looking to defend last year’s Bronze medal which was achieved by Myles Graham, Abigail Gray, Demi Howard-Cartwright and Isla Sully.
