Tetrathlon 2019
Another wonderful weekend at Tattersalls for the annual tetrathlon event. The competitors had mighty craic and we had some great performances and lots learned over the course of the weekend. Lots of tetrathlon first timers gave it everything on what proved to be a tough xc course. A big well done to Aoife (1st placed team) and Bob who ran like the wind to achieve fantastic results in the Senior competition.

Minimus & Tetrathlon
National & Home Intl. Tetrathlon Championships
In 2017 Tipperary had 13 members competing with 5 teams, 1 senior boy, 1 junior boys teams of 4 and 2 junior girls teams of 4.
2017 Senior Girls
The team of Romy McCarthy, Lucy O’Donnell & Zoe Stokes managed respectable scores in the shooting to kick off for the Tipps,with Romy being a late call up – thank you Romy! The girls put in good performances in the pool and did very well.
The team successfully navigated a very strong senior XC course with determination. Well done girls you were brave and hardy, as were your mounts! Running was last up on Sunday and the three girls had solid runs holding their place to finish 5th from 9 teams which was brilliant.
Romy recently was selected to represent Ireland in the FEI European Pony Championships in Hungary-a huge congratulations from us all! Lucy and Zoe having both been to the UK representing Ireland in tetrathlon in the past, were on an Irish home intl. senior girls team in tandem with the club, and finished 4th. Zoe also received the silver commendation badge for overall score achieved riding senior tetrathlon.
It is hard to get pull a senior team together and we wish Aoibhin Coady a speedy recovery after an unfortunate mishap at the eventing champs ruling her of the competition. Big thanks to her and her Mum for marking a fence on the day and hopefully we will have her back next year.
2017 Junior Girls
The team of Camille Ryan, Susan Shanahan, Jane O'Donnell, Aoife Murphy provided a couple of very good shooting scores with Camille shooting over 800. Some good swimming from the team was followed and with both Aoife and Susan both getting a clear round XC. All the girls rode very well, the team finishing 4th- awesome effort.
The team of Hazel Barden, Lucy Austin, Jessica Stokes and Ruby Ffrench Davis also made a good effort on their debut tetrathlon. Lucy had an amazing + 700 shoot and Hazel and Ruby had a great clear xc. Again all the girls handled the tough track really well. Class girls!
2017 Junior Boys
The team of Robert Wall, Ben Coleman, Yousef Sallam and John Kennedy scored some great shots to start from a really strong position. Some really sound swimming and a scorcher of a run from all four boys earned the team 5th place. A great xc effort from each of the boys rounded off the day very well. Great team effort from everyone.
Bob Barton and Izzy O'Donnell also had a fantastic time in the individaul competion and represented the club so well.
The weekend is quite full on for both parents and athletes – but big thanks to all the trainers and fence judges and fence movers and tent movers … (of course the parents) Hopefully we can keep growing our squad as we have a pool of members that could enjoy the camaraderie and fun of the whole event as well as the competition. All phases offer something for everyone challenging and the squad did us proud.
Hopefully we will see you all next year.
