Development Squads
The continued success of the ENSW Show Horse team is as a result of the Show Horse Committee providing Development Squads for promising combinations. ENSW Show Horse are very fortunate to have secured Mrs Joanne Prestwidge and Mr Les Friend, again, as the State Squad Coaches. Both Joanne and Les are highly respected and successful competitors within the Show Horse discipline as well as being accredited NCAS coaches. The knowledge they have to pass on to our young riders will be an important part of their ongoing Show Horse careers.
Training days and camps will be conducted during school holidays, where possible, with costs kept to a minimum for squad members, subsidised, in part, by Equestrian NSW where possible.
