CATRIONA HERSELF CATRIONA WILLIAMS IS SAID TO BE ONE OF THE GREATEST HORSEBACK RIDERS OF TODAYS CISEITY. BECAUSE OF HER GREAT ACHIEVEMENTS , THE PEOPLE SHE NEEDED TO HELP HER ALONG THE WAY, HER FORD GOING PERSONALITY, AND THE HURRIFFIC BATTLE. CATRIONA IS NOT ONLY A TURRIFFIC RIDER BUT A ROLE MODELS TO MANY PEOPLE.
HER GREAT ACHIEVEMENTS HER RIDING BACKGROUND: • TWICE WINNER OF PONYCLUB CHAMPS • GRAND PRIX WINNER • 15TH BADMINTON • 15TH BURLEY • COMPETED AT THE 1999 WORLD CUP FINALS IN SWEDEN
PEOPLE THERE FOR HER HER MAIN SUPPORTER HAS BEEN HER HUSBAND SAM AND HER PARENTS. HER MAIDEN NAME WAS MCLEOD BUT THEN MEETING HER HUSBAND SAM IN 2001. ALL FRIENDS AROUND SAID ALTHOUGH SHE MAY BE PARALISED SHE HAS NOT CHAGED ONE BIT. PEOPLE STILL LOOK UP TO HER STILL AS A ROLE MODEL FOR YOUNG UP AND COMING RIDERS. BUT THE PEOPLE WHO MAY NOT BE QUITE AS YOUNG TODAY STILL SEE HER AS A GREAT PERSON.
HER DETERMIND PERSONALITY SHE HAS ALWAYS SAID THAT ALTHOUGH I MAY BE IN A WHEEL CHAIR PEOPLE HAVE ALWAYS TREATED ME AS CATRIONA WILLIAMS THE PERSON,NOT CATRIONA WILLIAMS THE PERSON IN A WHEEL CHAIR.
