2025 Appalachian Trainer Face Off Diamond Trainer Announcements šŗ
Thank you for the overwhelming number of applications this year.
This year, mentors will be involved during the whole process, from start to finish, to help you show up for your selected horse and get them further more fairly than ever before!
It has been a record year in terms of number of applications and quality of applicants.
While we cannot accept all of those who apply, we so encourage you to work hard on your horsemanship this next year and apply again! Improve and seek out opportunities to learn. Increase your husbandry and ground work and fine tuning undersaddle.
We want to see you announced next year because you've worked hard this year to be in the top portion of all of our applicants.
If you are announced here, be sure to PM the page to be added to our trainers only group where all announcements and information you need will be shared from here
