2023 EWA Annual Elections for Sport Committee representatives for the period 2024-2026

Dear Equestrian WA Members,

The EWA Annual Election will be held on Friday 10th November, 2023 closing 11.59pm.

Nominations for the Board of Directors and Sport Committees had previously closed 11.59PM this past Sunday, however, in accordance with the Committee By-Laws the Board has chosen to extend the nominations for one (1) week until 11.59PM on Monday 9 October 2023 for the Jumping and Show Horse Committee as EWA did not receive enough nominations to fill vacant positions on the committees.

This is the third year that the elections will be held under the new Committee By-Laws and is a great opportunity for individuals to have an opportunity to ‘put back’ into our sport.

The Board of EWA and the Sport committees continue to work tirelessly to support our sport and the State Equestrian Centre.

Our sport is built on the support of volunteers – many of you have the ability to make a positive difference to our sport. The Board and Sport committees require leaders – if you are willing and able, please nominate or if 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.

Whilst there are only a few positions on the various committees being open to election, all Committees also have some opportunities for appointing committee members, 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 positions to ensure there is a good balance of skills and representation on the committees. Nominations for appointed committee members will be called for following the elections.

We have a strong sport that is once again growing, please consider helping us to make the sport successful into the future.

Nominations extended and positions open for election are:

Jumping WA committee 
Three (3) positions
