Clinic & Competitions

Clinics and Competitions throughout Ireland will follow the NBHA USA rules and regulations, this will allow riders and their horses from beginners to advanced level the opportunity to compete at barrel racing and qualify for NBHA Open & Senior World or Youth World.

To qualify for the International Events you MUST BE A NBHA IRELAND MEMBER

Clinics & Competition Format

The day will start with an introduction to barrel racing, if you are a beginner I will start you on the pattern and anybody who has been to do previous training events you will go through what you have learnt and then we will progress.

Barrel racing is a lot of repetitive training slowly teaching your horse the pattern how to turn / how to leave the barrel / when to collect and so on.

After lunch the competition will commence with classes to suit every ones level
