The local club claimed the Willcocks Shield, a trophy contested between four clubs – Glen Innes, Inverell, Tenterfield and Emmaville. 

The points from the four clubs’ gymkhana events were added up and Glen Innes beat last year’s winners, Inverell, by a narrow margin.

They were presented with the Shield at the final event which was held in Tenterfield on November 3 and 4. 

“We had some good individual results within that too,” the club’s deputy chief instructor Alison Spencer said. 

“We usually do pretty well at those interclubs. 

“We had lots of kids turn up which was good and it was a great, fun weekend.

“We have had a couple of big days and we were happy with the overall win.

“All the kids just got on well and were great to have up there for the two days so that was really good. 

“It was just a fun weekend, the kids were great, the parents were great and it was a good spot.”

The next Zone 13 event is this weekend in Walcha with the annual campdraft on Saturday followed by the host club’s interclub event on Sunday.

Competitions wrap up the following weekend in Armidale with the Zone dressage and another interclub.

While there are still two more weekends, it is unlikely many riders from Glen Innes will take part.

“There is probably a couple that are going to Walcha for the Zone campdraft but not too many and there probably won’t be too many at Armidale either,” Spencer said.

“Most of the campdrafts are back on now too, we have Inverell this weekend so where it clashes with a campdraft, interclubs tend to lose out a bit unfortunately.”
