The AHTA has created Coach Identification lanyards for Eventing coaches in order to make it easier for competition officials to identify who is Licensed/Registered with EC for 2025 and who is allowed to be coaching in the warmup ring.
If the coaching certification needs to be renewed during the year, make sure you renew. This is not a free pass to be in the warmup ring. The coach still needs to be registered with the show office, on the rider entry form. Registered Coaches must pay the EC Fee of $50/competition. The Temporary Coach fee is $225/competition
There are “Temporary” coach ID lanyards that will be distributed at competitions for the coaches who are not EC Coach certified and are registered with the show office. This lanyard will be available at the show office and must be returned at the end of the competition.
For the EC Certified Coaches who are not listed on the Find A Coach list – we need to hear from you in order to get your identification made.
Email messages were sent out to all coaches listed on the EC Find A Coach list in order to get the ID Lanyard delivered. There are a number of coaches who have not responded to the email and the ID lanyard is being held by Kathleen Ziegler. Please email ahtahighperformance@gmail.com if you have any questions or want to make arrangements to receive your lanyard.
