Show Jumping in Shropshire in 2011

Posted by Chris on February 10th, 2011

During 2011 Netley Hall will be holding 3 major equestrian events:

Netley Hall Estate is a rural haven in the heart of the Shropshire countryside, yet only six miles from the

famous historic mediaeval town of flowers, Shrewsbury.

The Prestigious Hall was commissioned by Mr Thomas Henry Hope-Edwards in 1855 and designed by

the famous architect Edward Haydock. The Estates grounds cover an extensive 160 acres, with 6 lakes,

22 holiday cottages and superb equestrian facilities.

The Events

In conjunction with The British Show Jumping Association (BSJA) and Sky Sports Netley Hall’s aim is to raise the

profile of British Show Jumping to the general public with the help of the country’s top riders.

Netley Hall wants to encourage people to support and follow one of the only sports in the world where men

and women compete on a level playing field.

They have developed three events this year that will include an equestrian aspect attracting the very

best riders in Pony show jumping with top prizes as well as fantastic general public attractions that

even those not interested in the sport can enjoy. They are expecting in excess of 3000 members of the

general public and equestrian competitors per event.
