REHC Organises Bahrain Jockeys Programme supported by Tamkeen
Through youth investment, Bahraini jockey talent development, and advancement in accordance with the most recent training techniques, the program seeks to improve horseracing. In keeping with the Club’s growth goal and dedication to bolstering the pool of Bahraini jockeys, the initiative will be overseen by professional trainers from the British Racing School.
The initiative, which is open to Bahraini children of both sexes between the ages of 15 and 22, aims to inspire young people to engage in horseracing and hone their abilities using cutting-edge training techniques, eventually enabling them to compete in future official races.
Between September 14 and September 20, 2025, interested applicants may register via REHC‘s official website, bahrainturfclub.com, in compliance with the terms and conditions specified therein.
