CANTER CON is a face‑to‑face professional development and networking event designed to bring the equestrian coaching community together for two days of collaboration, connection, and hands‑on learning.

Delivered in partnership by Equestrian Australia (EA), Pony Club Australia (PCA), and Riding for the Disabled Australia (RDA), this event is all about:

  • Practical, skills‑focused coach development

  • Cross‑organisation learning and shared expertise

  • Showcasing best practice across the equestrian sector

Whether you're an experienced coach or still training, CANTER CON is your chance to learn from industry leaders, expand your coaching toolkit, and connect with coaches from all three organisations.
