UF Western Equestrian Team

Q: Where do we take lessons?

Q: How often do we need to take lessons if I want to show in an Intercollegiate show?

A: New members who wish to show need to take a few lessons to get to know the trainer. We like for members to take as many lessons as they can, the more, the better. Work hard, and it will certainly pay off.

 

Q: What if I do not have a car of my own? How do I get to my lessons?

A: Carpooling! Carpooling with teammates not only saves gas, but also gives you an opportunity to get to know your teammates a little better. We will post a calander to sign up for lessons and you can schedule your lesson with your carpooling teammate so you can take your lesson at the same time.

 

Q: What if I do not have western show clothes or equipment?

A: The team provides chaps and spurs; however you are required to have a western hat, boots and a show shirt. Many of our members have show shirts for sale and we will also have a day to meet up and go buy clothing needed. You do not need any tack we provide all of it!

 

Q: What do I need to bring with me to the shows?

A: We email every member a show list of what to bring for each show

 

Q: How much are lessons?

A: A group lesson of no more than 4 riders is $35. A personal lesson is $45

 

Q: Do we have to get sponsorships?

A: YES! You are required to have at least two sponsorships. This is how we reimburse your show fees.
