Happy International Women's Day !
Equestrian Queensland are thankful to the many women who play a vital role in Equestrian sport in Queensland, whether they are riders, coaches, grooms, volunteers, administrators or business operators.
These hardworking, passionate women make up 90% of our membership, whose love of horses is the primary driver behind their commitment to caring for its welfare and their dedication to develop a partnership with a 500kg athlete.
Equestrian is the only Olympic sport which allows men and women to compete on equal footing.
Let's celebrate their contribution on International Women's Day
