OEA Coach of the Year award

*** New in 2024/Pilot Project ***

*REGISTRATION REQUIRED*



To all the coaches who work long hours preparing for, and taking their students to, sanctioned Horse Trials in Ontario – this one’s for you! Each year, the OEA will award a year-end prize to an Ontario coach based on the greatest accumulation of Regular OEA Leaderboard points earned by the riders who train with them. This Award is a token of sincere thanks from the OEA for all that hard-working coaches who keep our sport of Eventing healthy in Ontario. We couldn’t do it without you!


This Award is available to licenced Eventing coaches each year. To be eligible a coach must be licensed in 2024 and certified from 2025 onwards. It will be announced at the OEA’s Annual General Meeting in November and the winner – the coach whose students have earned the most Leaderboard points at sanctioned Horse Trials in Ontario at the end of the season – will receive a branded ‘OEA Coach of the Year’ ‘golf’ jacket and a $250 cash prize.

To be eligible, coaches are asked to please register with a list of students they coach and bring to HTs so that we don’t miss anyone. We’ll do the rest. Riders are encouraged to indicate the name of their licensed coach on their HT entries. For the pilot phase, all divisions are weighted equally. The ‘Coach-of-the-Year’ Leaderboard will be maintained by an OEA volunteer associated with the Coaching and Education Committee.


*** During the 2024 season, while the award is in its pilot phase, teams will have until August 15 to register and results will be applied retroactively. ***
