SANESA

SANESA stands for the South African National Equestrian Schools Association. It is the official governing body responsible for promoting and developing equestrian sport at school level across South Africa.

SANESA provides structured competitions for school riders in various equestrian disciplines, including Dressage, Show Jumping, Eventing, Equitation, and Working Riding, among others. The association focuses on youth development, sportsmanship, safety, and accessibility, allowing learners to compete both individually and as part of their schools or provincial teams.

SANESA plays a key role in introducing young riders to competitive equestrian sport, offering a clear pathway for progression from grassroots school competitions to higher-level national and international participation.
