Göteborg Horse Show Foundation

Gothenburg Horse Show Scholarship

The purpose of the Gothenburg Horse Show Scholarship is to give more young riders the opportunity to expand their knowledge and develop skills in areas that are essential to their continued development.

After a few years’ break, the scholarship was relaunched with a new format focusing on a number of key areas. Together with their trainer, applicants identify the areas in which they would like to develop or deepen their knowledge and explain how they plan to use the scholarship to do so.

The scholarship encourages young riders to learn more about the fundamentals of riding, the importance of physical and mental performance, as well as horse welfare and training physiology.

Focus areas:

• Riding fundamentals
• Sports psychology & mental training
• Rider position
• Nutrition & off-horse training
• Equine training physiology
