"Emily just turned 14 years old and lives in Coastal Georgia. She fell in love with horses at a young age (5 years old), and throughout the years, her passion for horses gained momentum.

When she was 10 years old, she started competing in the Georgia Federation of Saddle Clubs in poles, cones, arena race, Texas, and clover. She us if she could get her own horse. We allowed her to find one; she didnโ€™t want a โ€œseasonedโ€ horse or one that had โ€œbeen there and done that.โ€ She wanted one that she could grow up with and train herself.

So, in March 2023, she found Dash (A Dashinโ€™ Sensation). She was green broke when we purchased her, so Emily had to teach her about the 5 events and barrel racing. She also had to work on this for herself, so they embarked on the journey together.

As they learned together, Emily decided that she wanted to focus more on barrel racing, and that is what she has been working on with Dash.

During 2024, she joined the NBHA, BBR, and GTBRA and started competing in GA NBHA06; from here, they both started excelling in barrel racing. This past year, she qualified for not only the 2025 NBHA Youth/Teen Worlds but also the 2025 NBHA Open Worlds. As of this typing, she found out that she has also qualified for the BBR World Finals in Oklahoma City, OK, in April 2026."

"Avery has been riding alone since she was 4 years old. She started out competing in Ranch Sorting and Team Penning, then picked up Barrel Racing in 2019. She has worked her way up riding horses that have fit her riding style and the level she was on at the time. She has worked her way up from trotting the pattern to running in the Open 1D . This kid works day in and day out , always wanting to be better. She is the type that actually works hard and does all of the work right alongside of us, day in and day out. She's always eager to learn. She's always looking to be better and for that next step of the mountain. Luckily she lives close to Jimmy and Jamie Cagle and they love taking her under their wing to teach her and guide her. She loves helping them with all their colts and vice versa.

I feel like she is very deserving for all the hard work she puts in daily, that is truly hard to find nowadays with kids her age! "

The new date for the 2026 YBB will be... ๐Ÿฅ

โ˜€๏ธ August 7-8, 2026 โ˜€๏ธ

Helloooo long days and warm sun! ๐Ÿคฉ

While we are so sad that the YBB is taking a hiatus for the 2025 year, when we come back in 2026, it's going to be better than ever!

The venue nor the format will be changing โ€“ only the date! But who doesn't love a good summer show?!

๐ŸŽฏ Now, we understand that this show directly follows NBHA Youth World, and we fully accept that due to that, our entires in the slot may suffer BUT to help try and mitigate any financial stress, there will be ZERO late entry or late nomination fees as there has been in the past. We will also be allowing a full payment plan!

โœจ๏ธFor our open riders, we will be offering, for the first time, an average!! How exciting! We may even have a youth average if desired. ๐Ÿค”

๐Ÿ†We will have prizes for our SR divisional winners, peewees, and a high money prize โ€“ along with added money (TBD)!

๐Ÿ’ธ New this year, the person who enters that has traveled from the furthest distance, will get some FREE MONEY ๐Ÿค‘

We are SO excited for the 2026 season and we hope you are too!

Entries open Jan. 1, 2026 on SaddleBook! ๐Ÿคฉ
