Championship and consolation games will be played Sun day Riding safely important By HELEN MASON Riding can be safe and enjoyable sport when you remember to take precautions to prevent injury Why is then that both adults and children are killed or injured an nually often during pleasant afternoon trail ride blame popular fiction and television programs Raised with such romantic fables as International Velvet riders often forget the dangers inherent in using an animal mor than five times their own weight Adults who would never consider riding motorcycl without crash helmet frequently ride horses without head protection Children who wear hockey helmets for even minor skirmish neglect to wear crash helmets whe mounted on Ole Paint While its true that theres great pleasure to be obtained from the evening wind rippling through your hair as you cianter along wooded track it may not be worth the risk 1977 and 1978 for example there were 10 deaths in Ontari related to horseback riding Only one rider wore helmet 01 these 10 deaths reports John Ebbs executive assistant to the Chief Coroner of Ontario eight were caus ed by tread injuries Only one of these riders was wearing helmet Two received their head injuries as result of being dragged when their feet became caught in their stirrups One of the other deaths was attributed to drownin as result of unconsciousness which conceivably coul have been prevented by wearing helmet The 10th death was due to massive internal injuries sustained when the rider fell from the ho rse Each coroners jury made similar suggestions riders should have safe footwear preferrabiy boot or shoe with heel large enough to prevent the riders foot from slipping through the stirrup and helmets should be worn for speed events jumpin and during riding contests At riding stables there should be close daily check of equipment and inexperienced riders should be ac companied by mature outriders Many of the deaths occurred at riding establishments where horses were rented by the hour Until provincial regulations make safety precautions mandatory its up to the individual to protect yourself when leasing or renting horses When riding an unfamiliar mount wear crash helmet Some barnsour horses will race for the barn at the slightest provocation If theres fence or closed gate in the way you can be in danger Rider died after horse jumped One trail horse jumpcd pasture enclosure to return home The rider was thrown landed on his head and died without regaining consciousness helmet might have sav ed this life Always wear footwear lprererrably bootsl with sufficient Iy large heels to prevent your foot from slipping through the stirrups Frequently its the inexperienced rider who gets careless After couple of years of riding we think were secure Our feet will never slip Mrs Hepworth of the Ontario Humane Society Shelter Farm told me this story of one pony clubber This girl had always ridden in adidas and wasnt about to change them At local shows she came attired in proper Last year her horse shied out onto busy road She was thrown dragged and broke her ankle It was hard lesson says Mrs Hepworth but the girl
