Team

The people who keep every ride steady, safe, and welcoming.

Steve'S Western Rider'S Club (Swrc) is run by mentors, organizers, and working riders who build dependable programming across Lund through practical leadership and daily care.

Club leadership

Eight people covering coaching, welfare, outreach, and the rhythm of club operations.

The Swrc team mixes program leadership with hands-on arena work. Every member supports riders directly, whether through lesson structure, horse care, volunteer coordination, or event delivery.

Together they keep the club practical and accessible, with clear points of contact for families, new riders, and local partners.

Shared focus

What the team protects

Consistent instruction that meets riders at different confidence levels.

Safe horse handling and dependable routines before speed or showmanship.

Volunteer structures that let events and trail days run without confusion.
