Equestrian WA

October 15, 2020

Nominations are closing 5 days from now!

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.

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 2021 and beyond.

Nominations close on 20th October 2020.

Ron Fleming
Chair 
Equestrian WA

COACH & OFFICIAL EDUCATION SUBSIDY - OPENING NOVEMBER 2ND

The Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries (DLGSC) is pleased to announce the opening of the Coach and Official Education Subsidy.

The subsidy provides funding to assist volunteer coaches and officials who reside in regional Western Australia with out-of-pocket travel and accommodation costs to participate in sport specific courses to obtain high level accreditations, within their sports coaching and officiating pathway. It is recognised that not all accreditations are available throughout regional Western Australia therefore this subsidy will contribute towards their travel costs to participate in courses.

UPCOMING EVENTS


With the latest easing of restrictions in Phase 4 by the WA Government, we have now reviewed and updated the following documents to support the gradual restart of the equestrian activities in WA.


We all want to get back to normal life as soon as possible. Ensuring our members, their friends and families remain safe and prepared is critical to achieving this.

One of the ways we can all play our part is to get the Australian Government's COVIDSafe app. While downloading the app is entirely voluntary, it has been highly recommended by both the Australian and WA Governments to assist our health professionals and help stop the spread of COVID-19.

Equestrian WA is encouraging all members to consider downloading the app to help keep our community safer.








EWA gratefully acknowledges the support of the Department of Sport and LotteryWest.
