Tuffa Footwear is delighted to announce its sponsorship of Carol Chapman, a local endurance rider who’s risen up through the ranks and represented England in August.
Carol was first introduced to endurance some eight years ago and was hooked from the first ride. Six years ago, she bought Silver Prince Sadik, a then four year old who had recently been broken to ride. At the age of five, he was registered to compete and so the duo’s competitive career began. Since Carol registered Silver Prince Sadik, they have covered over 1000km competitively together with EGB. This summer saw Carol take part at the Home Internationals in Scotland, representing England – a competition that the England team won.
“I have worn Tuffa boots for many years and have found them to be the best and extremely comfortable, so it’s lovely to be sponsored by a company that I feel I know so well,” says Carol. “I wear them around the yard, for training, for competing and general use…and I’m also taking my Endurance Riding Trainers when I go to India in January to crew for a fellow endurance rider who’s participating in a race ride. I currently have three different styles in use and would highly recommend them to anyone, whatever discipline they compete in. I am very grateful that Tuffa decided to sponsor me.”
“We’re really pleased to be able to support Carol,” says Michelle Girling from Tuffa Footwear. “She’s a local lady who’s done incredibly well and we’re excited to watch her and support her in her sport.”
One of Tuffa’s most popular lines, the Endurance Boot, is worn by Carol and is ideal for endurance riding.
