The BSJA Jersey welcome you to 2008.
Following a very difficult 2007, I would like to enter the 2008 season with a renewed focus towards the ethos of the BSJA Jersey - namely a fun, competitive club, which encourages Show jumping in Jersey.
On a personal note, I would like to thank Dave Robinson for standing in as chairman last year. His hard work and methodical approach has enabled the club to retain a position of great stability and strength for the coming years.
BSJA Jersey is a members club. Myself and the Committee welcome any comments or suggestions on how you as the members would like to see the club move forward.
We have excellent facilities, though there is always room for improvement. As a rider, there is nothing that I would like more than to be able to regularly compete on an all weather surface, however this facility will require financing. I am certain that with the positive support of committee and members alike, this can be achieved sooner rather then later.
So my message to all for 2008 is let's push the BSJA Jersey forward together. I firmly believe that this coming season promises to be a good year for Show jumping in Jersey.
