Equestrian Australia (EA) Chairman Dr Warwick Vale has secured a second year in the position with Directors reappointing him Chairman at the first Board meeting following the 2013 AGM.

In accordance with the constitution, the first meeting of the Board following the AGM allows the Directors to vote on the positions of Chair, Deputy Chair as well as the sub committees.

Dr Vale was delighted to be reappointed to the role unopposed and equally pleased to have Nick Crowe reappointed as Deputy Chairman.

“I was very honoured to be voted in again as Chairman and to have Nick’s continued support as Deputy Chairman.
