I believe the newsies fandom has unanimously (at least for the majority of us) agree on a few things such as jack, race, and crutchie being siblings. And i believe as siblings they hv a few activities they do together to bond. The activity i want to push into the narrative here is horseback riding. Let me explain.

Jack, Crutchie, and Race were adopted by Medda on various different occasions but were around the same age. It started from Ms Medda being a foster parent to Jack. She had personally knew the boy’s mom. One thing let to another, Jack was forced to be taken cared of by Medda at quite the young age. Not long after, Crutchie came and so did Race (who was just a year younger than the two but accelerated in school so they were in the same grade). It wasn’t long till Medda finalized their adoption paper and they were thrilled.

Growing up together, they soon realized they liked different things from one another. However, they find out horseback riding one day as middle schoolers and has never looked back since. It was one Summer roadtrip to visit Medda’s friend who lived on a farm. They had horses and let the boys have their fun. They begged Medda to learn on their own, and Medda was delighted to hear it. She never wanted to stop the boys from learning and exploring new things. She doesn’t have the means to buy and own a horse, but she can definitely afford them proper lessons.

Idk like the specifics of which equestrians disciplines they would take up + what they are in general (i’m not an equestrian sorry) but they definitely rock a lot of equestrian shit. They enter competitions but i wld say they’re like average at it so not a lot of wins. But also i don’t believe equestrian are their main sports to begin with so it doesn’t really matter to them, they just enjoy horseback riding in general. However if it is important to yall, I believe Race wins the most trophies with Crutchie a close second and jack very far behind the both of them lolz. He’s just too focused on living his childhood dream of being a cowboy. Their favorite thing to do with horseback riding though is to ride freely in an open field and just race around together. It’s not even considerably a race since their riding mostly consists of laughing and feeling the wind when they speed. It feels amazing to go to the country side and go riding on a couple rounds together. Top tier sibling bonding moment. I love them. I love this. Pls love this too random tumblr users.
