The All Ireland Hunter Trials Interschools is an event that takes place every year and is hosted by the winning school of the previous year. Students have to complete a cross country track on their horse of approx 2/3 miles and participants have to jump approx 30 solid obstacles, these include water jumps, drains, hedgegrows, telegraph poles, etc. Last year Scoil Pol competed in the team event and individual event in Co.
