EWA RECOMMENDS NOMINATE FOR EVENT ENTRIES AND SCORING
Are you running an event? EWA recommends nominate for event entries and scoring.
EWA is proud to support Nominate the only Equestrian event entry system that links with the EA membership database . The benefits to EWA is that entries are checked at the time of entry to ensure that membership is current and horses are registered if required. When events use Nominate ScoreBoard, the results are links to the EA member database with both EWA and the Club benefiting with reduced administration costs to the Sport. Part of the Nominate event entry fee is returned to EA providing valuable support for EA that reduces the administration cost for all members.
The ScoreBoard scoring system caters for all EA Sports except vaulting and carriage driving, providing live scoring for riders and spectators directly to your phone. ScoreBoard is totally free to use and if the event also uses Nominate as the event entry system to two systems link such entries automatically flow from one.
Live Score Dressage was used at the WA Dressage Championships with great success. This paperless system provides a digital copy of dressage tests and instant scoring, providing real-time scoring movement by movement and provisional placings.
Support the event entry and scoring provider that supports you.

MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR OF EQUESTRIAN WA
All voting members of Equestrian WA have received a notice calling for nominations for positions on the Board and our other committees that are becoming vacant at the end of the year.
This is a great opportunity for individuals to have an opportunity to ‘put back’ into our sport.
The Board of EWA has worked tirelessly to support our sport and the State Equestrian Centre. And our Sports and other Committees do the same for their individual sectors.
Whilst we are all time poor, and volunteers – many of you have the ability to make a positive difference to our sport.
Our committees require leaders – if you know of someone who has qualities that will provide leadership to our sport, please approach them and suggest they nominate.
In the past, there has often been lethargy around nominating for our committees, and there is often an assumption that sitting members will renominate, or that the committees are closed shops. Neither of these assumptions should prevent good people from nominating.
New ideas are the lifeblood of good Committees – we need passionate people to provide leadership and ideas.
The Board and CEO have worked closely with Sports Committees during the past few years, and will continue to provide support and leadership.
Whilst there are only a few positions on the various committees being open to election, all Committees also have some opportunities for appointing positions, so those who nominate and may not be successful in the election may be offered an appointed position – again these are not ‘closed shop’ positions – they are genuine positons to ensure there is a good balance of skills and representation on the committees.
We have a great sport, please consider who may help us make the sport stronger, grow participation and provide leadership into 2020 and beyond.
Nominations close on 26 September.
Ron Fleming
