We would like to take the opportunity to thank you for your commitment to training riders, vaulters and horses across all levels in the different disciplines. You are a significant cornerstone in developing our beautiful equestrian sports into the future.

Equestrian Australia (EA) has re-established the National Coaching Committee (EACC). It will facilitate and direct the strategy and education requirements of coaches as experts in the Discipline. EA will support you with better service and further your development and knowledge through different avenues.
