Team QMS — High Performance Foundation
The Team QMS High-Performance Competitive Program advances committed riders who demonstrate good horsemanship, leadership and sportsmanship—in the saddle, in the classroom and on the ground. Our competitive riders are fully supported in balancing riding and academics, athletics, arts, service and leadership opportunities. We believe high-performance is a way of life and support our athletes in building a strong, well-rounded foundation.
As part of our competitive riding pathways, Team QMS competitive riders participate in our High-Performance Foundations Program. With horses as their co-teachers, students will learn about mental and emotional performance, tactical skill building, functional strength and conditioning, nutrition, and the power of daily practice. Horse board and lease options are available at the Shirley Burr Equestrian Centre.
