Empowering the next generation of Canadian dressage and jumper riders.

Introduction

The Jill Irving Youth Equine Mentor Program is a grass-roots initiative designed to provide young, up-and-coming dressage and hunter/jumper riders the invaluable opportunity to observe professional competition first-hand, and learn directly from experienced riders and coaches. The program provides accommodation for recipients, offering these young riders a chance to witness and experience training at the highest levels of our sport.

Operating in conjunction with Dressage4Kids, the Jill Irving Youth Equine Mentor Program proudly opens the door to young Canadian riders who may otherwise lack the support for such an experience, encouraging the growth of the sport while making a difference in the lives of each recipient.
