The IPS, in order to help keep our younger members occupied over the next few weeks, are thinking of running a series of mini exercises. We are hoping that our members will send us videos of their work in progress, for example, plaiting, applying horse make-up and markings. Riding videos for either flatwork or jumping can be also be sent to us and a panel of judges can critique these and return them with suggested work to do. Depending on how long this lockdown continues, this could culminate into a virtual show. We have a new dedicated telephone number for this which is 083 3019641.
With your permission, these would then be uploaded to our Facebook page. These exercises are also to encourage our younger members to get more involved on show day and all those that get involved will be recognised at our Awards at the end of the year. Firstly, let us know if anyone is interested in getting involved. This dedicated number is not for other IPS queries which should still be directed to ips@horsesportireland.ie.
