ABOUT US
Formed
in early 2002, with Sue Gunnat the helm, 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 February using the facilities at SIEC, a legacy of the 2000 Olympic
Games.
Since that first event, the club has run regular events
every year. The layout of the
site (click here) 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 over Australia competing.
SIEC comes with wonderful stabling, dressage and cross
country facilities. Overseen by
Sue and more recently with the help of Wayne Copping (International Designer),additional
courses have been designed and constructed so it 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 compet-
ition 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. 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 great volunteers. Affiliated with the EFA
of NSW and Eventing NSW
it welcomes anyone who
would like to become a part of the fun whether as jump judge, penciller,
steward - we
need all the help we can get. Click here
