West Equestrian Team and Rescue
The Team was first established in 2003 for the purpose of providing local kids with horses,
equipment and coaching to compete and participate in a variety of horse activities. We are
different from 4H, FFA and Rodeo clubs in that we do not require kids to own their own horse.
Dressage, Jumping, Competitive Trail and Vaulting (gymnastics on horseback) are some of the
events offered..
The horses are owned by West Equestrian Service, and loaned in from other local owners.
The team also works with rescued horses which the kids help rehabilitate, retrain, show and find
new homes for. The Coach for the Team is Cheryl West who donates all extra coaching,
coordinating, and horse related time directly to the team.
All students are eligible for the team once they have accomplished the skills necessary to control
and ride their horses, at walk, trot and canter in a variety of situations.
Our youngest member has been only 9 years old.
