“I’m proud of these young athletes and what they have accomplished this early in their careers,” said Williams. “We are very fortunate to provide educational and development opportunities for them such as the annual European Tour offered through our youth programs. It is especially rewarding to support them in this experience and be a part of their individual journeys as they continue to grow as riders and horsewomen.”
