FINALIST PROFILE
2021 EQUESTRIAN VICTORIA
CLUB OF THE YEAR FINALIST
COASTAL EQUESTRIAN CLUB
MEET COASTAL EQUESTRIAN CLUB
Coastal Equestrian Club (CEC) was launched in 2015 following a huge demand for a professional club that caters to those riders who want to be competitive as well as socialise with those who share their passion of riding.
This club has gone from strength to strength since its inception. During the global pandemic, the club adapted to the climate, being the very first club in Australia to run online competitions. CEC ran an online competition a month during lockdown.
Coastal Equestrian Club runs the annual Coastal Equestrian Club Dressage Extravaganza which features both EA and HRCAV Championships. CEC was the first club in Australia to run dual championships.
Horse riding, particularly dressage, is quite a solo sport but at CEC we have an emphasis on the social aspects as well, our group of members support each other and enjoy the company of likeminded people. The club runs regular clinic type rallies with local and interstate instructors and we have many nonriding and social functions. CEC is affiliated with the HRCAV & EA.
