Riding
The Farlington Riding Squad has been one of the most successful school squads, either winning or being placed at events all around the country for more than a decade.
Farlington is situated in prime equestrian country enabling pupils to stable their horses either at home or at local livery yards. Farlington, despite having no specific equestrian facilities is delighted to offer regular training at the local equestrian centres and X Country schoolings at several of the surrounding British Eventing courses. Farlington strongly supports the girls in their riding pursuits which ensures that the squad is very competitive both at school competitions and on an individual basis.
Throughout the year the squad (with girls ranging from 8 to 18 years old) compete for Farlington at all local Team Show Jumping events and further afield at championship events such as the Eventing Championships held in Wiltshire and the NSEA (National Schools Equestrian Association - www.nsea.co.uk ) Championships held in Buckinghamshire.
In 2010 Farlington was West Sussex County Champions in Dressage, Novice, Intermediate and Open Show Jumping.
