Story
We have a lot of talented young kids at our yard that love to ride and want to develop their jumping skills further. I want these kids to have every chance to fulfil their potential by purchasing some new light weight poly jumps that can be used by all riders. These jumps will allow them to improve their skills and prepare more for competitions and allow them to achieve more.
Unfortunately the equipment available to them now is very limited and the poles are old splintering solid wood and too heavy for them to lift. They only have enough stuff to build maybe 3 jumps at a maximum height of 90cm, which limits the practise they can do.
The yard owners have spent a lot of money on recent major upgrades to the yard, such as installing new drainage, resurfacing the schools and installing new lighting, with the indoor school scheduled to be refurbished next. So it is unlikely that they can fund new jumps anytime soon.
The money raised will allow us to purchase a set of 7 light weight height adjustable poly jumps and poles that the riders can all use to make small courses to help hone their skills. They will also allow them to build jumps up to 6 foot, allowing the more advanced jumper to go higher.
Who knows, maybe the next Nick Skelton / Scott Brash / Laura Renwick / Jessica Mendoza is amongst them?
Please help me to help them.
Thank you.
