Get a Jumpstart on your College Riding Career!
Are you a high school student interested in competing in college and getting a feel for what it’s like to ride and show on an Intercollegiate Horse Show Association (IHSA) team?
Learn from college industry professionals, meet the UConn Equestrian Team and horses, and showcase your riding skills in a winter and spring clinic at UConn.
The one-day fall clinic will include horse schooling, a course walk, and a mock show with over-fences and flat divisions. The two-day spring dates will include a college selection and recruiting clinic and a hunter equitation clinic.
