MIETTA Innes-Irons has been selected for the Australian Para Dressage High Performance Program on the Green Squad. A categorised squad under the Australian Institute of Sport, which recognises athletes with potential for podium finishes at World and Paralympic Games.
Mietta began riding at age four and by the time she was 11 was competing in Grade One eventing, A Grade show jumping at pony club, and one-star eventing in open competition, before a horse fell on her in 2017.
Despite the tragedy, she has not given up on her passion for horse riding and competing at the highest level.
To help Mietta compete at the World Equestrian Games in August, she is holding an International Women’s Day event at the Overlander Hotel in Shepparton, on Sunday, March 8, at 2pm. With tickets from $25, you can celebrate with the women who bring you joy.
