With thanks to the EV Coaching Committee for their support throughout the accreditation process, we congratulate the following EA Coaches on achieving accreditation:

Coach Educators

Equestrian Victoria would also like to acknowledge and thank the Victorian Government's Together More Active funding program, which enabled this training to be delivered at a subsidised rate. This support ensured more EA coaches could access professional development opportunities without financial barriers.
