In conjunction with Sport England, British Showjumping is now pleased to reveal the second cohort of members selected for the 'Young Professional Programme'.
Eight individuals will be participating in this year long professional development programme which is funded by Sport England and it has been designed to help British Showjumping members further themselves within their chosen equestrian careers.
Operating on a flexible basis, the programme will help our members gain specific qualifications such as UK Coaching Certificates (UKCC) and it will also give them the opportunity to gain experience in their specific professions in order for them to develop their own business in a field of their choice. Participants could find themselves gaining hand on experience with a top level Coach or acquiring knowledge and skills from business workshops.
Mirroring last year, the successful applicants are focusing on a mixture of professions which for this year includes Breeding, Coaching, Course Building and Judging.
The applicants who have been accepted on to the programme are:
Harriet Aspell-Willington from Wiltshire (South West) – Judge
Emily Dewey from Dorset (South West) – Breeder
Hannah Downes from West Midlands & Staffordshire (West) – Breeder
Charlotte Goord from Devon (South West) – Breeder
Kelly Hart from Berkshire (South East) – Coach
Naomi McAleese from Nottinghamshire (East) – Coach and Course Builder
Emily Seebohm from Hertfordshire and Middlesex (East) – Course Builder
Hayley Webster from the Isle of Wight – Coach and Course Builder
We wish all of the successful applicants the best of luck throughout the programme and we look forward to watching them develop. Our thanks go to Sport England for their support of this programme.
