Our Team J Coach Training programs are continuing to be very successful, a big thank you to all of you who have been a part of them over the many years they have been running.

Our regular Wednesday Coach Training days run here at our Nelson Training Centre from 10am to 2pm and cost $85 per person. This is a friendly interactive group environment where trainees of different levels (Introductory, Level 1 & sometimes Level 2s) ride and coach lessons and conduct lunging sessions to meet assessment criteria for all EA  certificates. I regularly have the support of other Coach Educators - Colleen Brook L3 & Lyn Lunch L2 Vaulting to conduct and assess at these sessions. New people join this group and you are not expected to attend every week, just when your training schedule allows. Love to see you at one of these.

The Renewal date for Coach Registrations, 30th September, is fast approaching- so if you need to attend a compulsory Updating Clinic we have one here on 7th September. 10am to 2pm and cost $85.

Individual days can be arranged for people who cant make our mid week sessions. I am looking forward to a group from the Hunter Valley who have booked a  full day of training and assessment here on Sunday 11th Sep. I can also come to you if you have a group and can organise a venue and date. Give me a call if you have some ideas.

Pony Clubs are making great progress with their NCAS Coaching certificates and I am making regular trips to regional areas of NSW to run Coach Training weekends and conduct assessments for them. I will be in Mudgee on 13th & 14th August, Holbrook on 27th & 26th August, Dubbo on 8th & 9th October. If your Pony Club has a group wanting Coach Training or are ready for assessments call the PCA NSW for a booking phone 422 98977

George and I are both on the Pony Club's approved Paid Instructors Panel and can be booked for training at PC clinics throughout NSW. George went to Bourke to do a Clinic in the last holidays and we have both done one day clinics for our local clubs. Just check with us for availability of dates and then do the booking through the PCA NSW office phone 422 98977. To check dates for clinics with George call 0431 212661 or me 0412 405079.

We have lots of learning resources available for our trainee coaches and you can see some of these videos on our Coaches page.

Our latest Johnson Equestrian News is now available - In this issue George talks about riding a clear round, July Holiday Camp Round Up, Chrissie's Adventures, Sponsor updates, Dazzling Vaulting, plus lots more! Take a look  and we would love your feedback please Johnson Equestrian News Issue 6 August 2011

I hope this has updated you about our Coach Training and general training options we are offering at Team J. We also take horses for training and competition and can assist with your sales and purchase. We have availability for live in trainees and work experience students for short & medium term stays. 

We look forward to hearing from you.

Cheers  Chrissie
