Competition Teams

 
 

MET offers both competitive and non-competitive team opportunities in a unique "catch-riding" format, where riders compete on horses they’ve never ridden before. This format enhances adaptability and horsemanship skills, vital for equestrians at all levels.

MET teams compete as part of the Interscholastic Equestrian Association (IEA) and the Athletic Equestrian League (AEL).

Learn more about the Interscholastic Equestrian Association (IEA), offered to 4th thru 12th graders here.

Learn more about the Athletic Equestrian League (AEL), offered to K thru 12th graders and adults here.

Riders may apply to be a part of IEA and/or AEL, depending on what is offered at their location.
