No news? Think again! Behind the scenes, preparations are in full swing…

Anyone who has been waiting for news from us over the past few days might think things have gone quiet. But the exact opposite is true: our entire team has been working tirelessly to prepare for the 4th Tiemeyer x Hetzel Young Horse Masters. And what is taking shape here is something truly impressive, even to us.

The tents are up, more than 400 stables have been built, and our grass arena is gradually being transformed into a welcoming event and exhibition area for families, visitors and exhibitors. Everywhere you look, people are building, decorating, organising and putting the finishing touches in place. At the same time, life at the stable continues as normal: our horses are being trained and cared for as always. Everything is running smoothly, everyone is working hand in hand, and the atmosphere within the team is fantastic. Seeing the passion, commitment and teamwork of every single person involved is truly inspiring. We are incredibly proud of our team, what they are achieving together is hard to put into words.

But it wasn't only busy here at home. On the sporting side, there was plenty to celebrate over the weekend as well:

  • Our students Ronnie, Jenna and Tamara from South Africa competed at the CSI3* in Riesenbeck during the Global Champions Tour, delivering strong performances with clear rounds and excellent placings in the top-level classes.

  • Another fantastic result came from Lasse Nölting, who claimed an outstanding second place with Javall Ryal K in the final of the German U25 Championship in Riesenbeck.

  • At the Westphalian Youth Championships in Waltrop, Justus Rotermund and F One's Son MM won the Junior Championship title, taking home the gold medal.

  • On the international stage, Alain Jufer also impressed by securing a top placing with Chaccoo de l'Escaut in the Grand Prix of the CSI3* in Šamorín.

In short: there has been an incredible amount happening over the past few days, far more than we have been able to share. But don't worry, we'll be catching up soon.

For now, our full focus is on the week ahead. With record-breaking entry numbers, world-class international riders and Europe's best young show jumping horses, we are about to host the biggest edition of the Tiemeyer x Hetzel Young Horse Masters in our history. We can hardly wait to get started and look forward to welcoming countless guests to Goch for what promises to be a truly unforgettable event.
