Junior European Championships

11 posts

Competing for Team GB at the Junior European Championships is the ultimate goal for many teenagers. I was lucky enough to be selected for the GB Junior Eventing squad in 2017 and 2018.

I competed as an Individual on Playtime in my first European Championships in Millstreet in Ireland. In 2018 I was part of the silver medal winning GB Junior team. Playtime and I came 5th individually.
