GET ENGAGED MOUNTIE NATION!
Equestrian Teams
Northwest has a middle school and a high school equestrian team. These teams compete with their horses at meets which operate much like a track meet. The coach puts the riders in events as individuals, sometimes as teams of two, and the riders earn points for the school team depending on how they place.
The junior team consists of students 6th - 8th grade, who either live in our district or live in a school district that does not currently have a team.The senior team consists of students from our school district and are in 9th-12th grade. It is necessary to have a horse or the use of a horse to be a rider on the team. Perhaps you or someone you know has a horse that needs a kid to work with? That owner could consider loaning or leasing out the horse.
The junior team practices once a week late winter through spring, and then shows in spring. The senior team practices once a week all summer and shows in the fall. Senior team enjoys many of the same opportunities as other sports such as extended meets for Regionals and States, as well as earning their letter for this sport. Check out their trophies, in the display cases in both buildings!
