BETHAN EVANS BECOMES THE YOUNGEST RIDER IN WALES TO RECEIVE THE NAF BRITISH SHOWJUMPING FIVE STAR PERFORMANCE AWARD

Bethan Evans, age 19 from Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, is currently studying at the University of Glamorgan and has had a passion for horses and Showjumping since an early age. She started her competitive career showing ponies and with working hunters, which she freely admits to hating, so moved over to Showjumping and quickly began progressing through the ranks with her ponies. Now competing on horses at the 1.25m and 1.30m level has found that the training and education that the Five Star Programme has given her has made a huge difference and feels she wouldn’t be competing at the level she is today with this training.

The NAF British Showjumping Five Star Performance Awards Programme delivers comprehensive training and a positive structure. With a series of progressive standards, the 5* Award Programme provides clear goals and competencies for all levels and abilities to strive for. British Showjumping coaches will help the rider to acquire the necessary skills and expertise needed to support their development. The Five Star Awards have been designed to help increase your performance in the ring.

Having reached the top level in the programme Bethan receives one year free membership to British Showjumping.
