Welcome to the University of Worcester’s Equestrian Club!
The Equestrian Club is for all UOW students who share a common love and interest for horses and all things equestrian regardless of previous experience.

Our aims:
- Provide opportunities
- Improve riding ability and experience
- Provide an amazing social group of friends
- Have fun!
BUCS:
- We have two performance teams who each compete against three other universities.
- The competition consists of each rider performing a dressage test, followed by a show jumping round after lunch, on a randomly selected horse.
- These two teams will train with instructors at Court Equestrian, 10 minutes from the University.
Development Riders:
- We have opportunities for riders of all levels, beginner to advanced, to train without the commitment of being on a compeition team.
- No riding experience required.
- Hacks can also be organised at request.
Friendly Competitions:
- We also have a friendly team that competes aginst other unis, run just like a BUCS league!
Socials:
- Every Wednesday is a Worcester Wednesday! You can join us for themed socials which include lots of games and entertainment.
- We also hold occasional sober socials, for those members who prefer this atmosphere.
All individuals welcome, whether an advanced rider or someone wishing to solely make friends and socialise with the club.
