Each year, members of the equestrian team participate in the \u201cEquestrian Inter schools Ireland\u201d league between&nbsp; September and April. A large number of students ranging from 1st to 6th year&nbsp;&nbsp; represent the school in the league. The teams compete at&nbsp;weekends (either Saturday or&nbsp;&nbsp; Sunday) in Wicklow, Kildare, Westmeath, Kilkenny, and Wexford. Students have also entered the&nbsp; Killossery Stud school leagues and will be entering the Equestrian&nbsp;Interschools Ireland league.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Success in the inter-school events is difficult to achieve given the stiff competition from other participating schools, with up to thirty schools competing in any one event. Despite this, through discipline, horsemanship, and determination (and the unwavering dedication of parents\/guardians), the students on the Scoil Mhuire Equestrian teams have enjoyed continuous success and finished in the top six schools in team and individual events in the interschool`s show-jumping league over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scoil Mhuire teams have also qualified to compete in the All-Ireland&nbsp;Inter-Schools Supreme Show-jumping Championship in Millsteet, Co Cork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, Scoil Mhuire has entered teams in the last two Inter Schools Hunter Trials with considerable success. In 2016, the Scoil Mhuire team achieved 7th place from an entry of over fifty teams, while the 2017 team achieved 3rd place \u2013 again from a large number of entries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Teams are due to participate in&nbsp;competitions at the following equestrian centres over the coming months:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Warrington (Co Kilkenny), Coilog (Co Kildare), Mullingar, Barnadown (Co Wexford), and Killossery and Broadmeadow (Co Meath). In the first competition of the year in Boswell Equestrian&nbsp;&nbsp; centre on September 17th, two teams represented Scoil Mhuire in the Novice and Open team competitions. Both teams performed very well achieving 3rd place overall in both competitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"6391\" src=\"https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image3-2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6391\" srcset=\"https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image3-2.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image3-2-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image3-2-768x576.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"6389\" src=\"https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image1-2-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6389\" srcset=\"https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image1-2-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image1-2-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image1-2-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image1-2-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image1-2.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"6390\" src=\"https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image2-2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6390\" srcset=\"https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image2-2.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image2-2-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image2-2-768x576.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"6876\" src=\"https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image5-2-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6876\" srcset=\"https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image5-2-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image5-2-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image5-2-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image5-2-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/scoilmhuiretrim.info\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image5-2.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scoil Mhuire equestrian teams have been competing in national competition for over twenty years with much success.
