Mike Florence, chef d’equipe of the BSJA’s young rider and junior show jumping teams, has organised a training course for prospective members of the Accenture squads.

Anyone interested in being considered for the squad should attend the course, which will be held at South View Equestrian Centre, Cheshire, on Friday, 8 February.

Horses should be grade A or B and jumping 1.30m and 1.40m opens consistently to take part in the course, which will be taken by former leading show jumper Rowland Fernyhough. The course will cost £25 per horse and rider.
