ABOUT US

WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY: School with Lucinda Green, 21-22 December, 2008 click here.

Formed in early 2002, with Sue Gunn at the helm,
and supported by her husband Jim, well known equestrian volunteers Ken & Pat Weekes, Wendy Simpson, Jim & Babs McSweeney, Mike O'Callaghan. Katrina Dukats with FEI dressage judges Rachel Hunter and Vicky Brydon, the inaugural One Day Event was held on 16th & 17th February at Sydney International Equestrian Centre (SIEC), Horsley Park.

Since that first event, the club has run regular events every year. The layout of the site is such that it leads to an orderly and efficient administration for events and, athough more costly for the riders, it is not surprising that it continues to grow in size and reputation each year with riders from all the eastern states coming to compete.

A legacy from the 2000 Olympic Games, SIEC comes with wonderful stabling, dressage and cross country facilities. Overseen by Sue, additional courses have been designed and constructed to complement the jumps left in place after the Olympic Games and the site now caters for riders from Newcomers through to international levels.

SIEC is also used to host the annual International CCI event for 1, 2 and 3 Star competition and although the CCI event is run by an independent group, the designers for both work together to ensure the course is continually being altered and upgraded. Together with the hard working staff at SIEC who see to the upkeep of the grounds and buildings, SIEC remains in pristine condition available for use by all equestrian disciplines.

Sydney (at SIEC) Eventing is proudly run by a friendly Committee made up of many wonderful volunteers. It is affiliated with the EFA of NSW and Eventing NSW and welcomes anyone who would like to become a part of this exciting venture as jump judge, penciller, steward - we need all the help we can get.

It appreciates and recognises the support provided by its sponsors:
