2022 EWA Annual Elections for the Board of Directors and Sport Committee representatives for the period 2023-2025

Dear Equestrian WA Members,

The EWA Annual Election will be held on Friday 4 November 2022, closing at 11.59pm.

Nominations for the Board of Directors and Sport Committees are now open.

Nominations for the Board of Directors and Sport Committees will close on Sunday 25 September at 11.59pm.

EWA is calling on members for nominations for positions on the EWA Board of Directors and Sport Committees that are vacant at the end of 2022.

This is the second year that the elections will be held under the new Committee By-Laws and is a great opportunity for individuals to give back to our sport.

The Board of EWA and the Sport Committees have worked tirelessly to support our sport and the State Equestrian Centre during these challenging couple of years.

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 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.

Whilst there are only a few positions on the various committees 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 continues to grow and develop, so please consider helping us to enable the sport to thrive in WA for generations to come.
