One week from today I will be heading to Winfield, WV to pick up my ATFO partner for the summer! This will be my 5th year competing and helping yet another horse find their forever home. I will be looking for sponsors and donations as this is a costly endeavor and every little bit helps towards travel, care, and training during the 100 days! I am super excited to see I come home with next week!
2025 Appalachian Trainer Face Off Platinum Trainer Announcements 🎺
Thank you for the overwhelming number of applications this year.
It has been a record year in terms of the number of applications and the quality of the applicants.
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 in a fair way than ever before!
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 tune under saddle activities.
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 through the end of the event.
