The Emory Equestrian team is a student-run Club Sports team that competes in Zone 5, Region 2 of the Intercollegiate Horse Shows Association (IHSA), which includes colleges and universities in Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi. The IHSA was founded on the principle that any college student should be able to participate in horse shows regardless of his or her financial status or riding level. The Emory Equestrian Team works to promote this mission by fostering a fun and supportive environment for riders of all skill levels who are interested in competing at the collegiate level.
