In the Western division, we ride Stock Seat Equitation. Stock Seat riders sit in the upright position and can be judged in an equitation pattern, pleasure, or reining. On our team, riders are expected to practice once a week with our coach, Katie Morehead. In these practices all riders are working towards improving position, control, and technique.
When joining the team all new riders will be evaluated by the coach in order to be placed in the proper IHSA division. This placement is based on the evaluation and past riding/showing experience.
