The UGA Equestrian Complex is located in Bishop, Georgia, approximately 12 miles south of the UGA campus. The 109-acre farm offers UGA’s equestrian program the finest in equine accommodations.
The facility features the brand-new $3.1 million Clubhouse. The 7,000-square foot facility has a fully equipped locker room and dressing facilities, team meeting room, sports medicine space, uniform storage and laundry facilities as well as coaches’ space, including an office suite and locker room.
Other features of the complex include a X-stall barn, four practice and competition arenas, including a covered arena, and a horse walker among other things.
Formerly known as High Point Farm, the facility served the Athens-area equine community with boarding and training facilities since 1993. In 1996, High Point was selected as the training site for the U.S. Dressage Team, which competed in the Summer Olympic Games at the International Horse Park in Conyers, Ga.
Prior to moving to its home in Bishop in January 2009, the Georgia equestrian team shared more than 100 acres with the Animal Science Arena, just minutes from UGA’s campus.
The University of Georgia Athletic Association (UGAAA) is committed to being the nation’s premier NCEA equestrian program, both in competition and facilities.
