University of Rochester Equestrian Team

University of Rochester Equestrian Team University of Rochester IHSA Hunt Seat Show Team and Riding Club Lessons We ride at JLD Equine, which is about 20 minutes from campus.

The University of Rochester Equestrian Team (URET) was founded for the purpose of providing UR students with fun and safe horseback riding lessons. We welcome everyone from complete beginners to Maclay finalists! This variety in experience levels gives members ample chance to learn from their peers and to spread their own knowledge and expertise to others. Our club team offers primarily English ri

ding lessons, with some Western lessons available, and rides once weekly for eight weeks each semester with qualified instructors. No riding or horse experience required! The show team rides twice weekly for ten weeks in the fall semester and five weeks in the spring semester with team coach Kelly Wilson. We compete in the Intercollegiate Horse Show Association (IHSA) Hunt Seat Equitation horse shows (Zone 2, Region 1). The IHSA horse shows run as single, continuous season from October to February (regular season) each academic year, with opportunities to qualify for Regionals, Zones, and Nationals (post-season). Riding experience is required for the show team.

Happy holidays from URET!!

Thank you so much to those who have donated to our club's fundraising campaign so far! We have already used some of your donations to support our team by covering our IHSA team membership fee, trailer fees to bring our horses to the shows in the Rochester area, and purchasing team saddle pads for our horses to represent our school with pride.

We have two more horse shows in February and we ask for your continued support of our team! Our crowdfunding page is still active at https://www.rochester.edu/giving/crowdfunding/?cfpage=/o/university-of-rochester/i/rochestergives/s/ur-equestrian. Your donations this calendar year are scheduled to go partially towards our horse show fees in the spring to continually help keep costs down for our riders so we can enjoy this sport and club for many more years to come. Thank you so much again, and have a great holiday season!
