Their coaching approach includes the following features:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Training in top class facilities in all Olympic Disciplines<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>Individual and group lessons<br \/>\nCross country coaching at Sandhills<br \/>\nSchool sport equestrian programs<br \/>\nNCAS Coach Accreditation including Riding and Horse Management Certificates<br \/>\nLive in coaching packages at Sandhills with rider and horse accommodation<br \/>\nClinics Australia wide<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>High Performance Coaching Packages<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>Craig and Prue offer a unique package targeted at riders who have aspirations to compete for Australia at the highest level. In their own coaching and riding experience, they have found that many riders already possess the talent and work ethic to allow them to achieve their goals but the piece that is missing is often someone to guide them through the minefield of decisions that are required along the way. Some of these decisions may be training related, which event to do next, when to upgrade or simply, someone to discuss ideas with. Prue has extensive experience in managing elite rider programs on a national level and together with Craig, they intend to offer this very personalised service to the development of international riders in Australia. This package is designed to work alongside riders&#8217; individual coaches and squad programs and does not designate Craig and Prue exclusively as the riders&#8217; coaches. This program includes personalised training and competition planning (including FEI MER requirements); performance analysis including video review of dressage, x-country and showjumping; coaching at events; tracking of results; veterinary services management and rider sponsor\/ owner support. Another important element of success in high performance sport is operating as part of a team. Members of this program have the opportunity to train with Craig and Prue at Sandhills alongside likeminded people who share the same endeavours. This is a unique service being offered to a select number of riders who are already competing at 2 and 3* level and are serious about competing internationally for their country.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>The facilities at Sandhills include<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>25 x 70 all weather dressage arena<br \/>\n30 x 75 all weather jumping arena with full course<br \/>\nCross country training including water jump, bank, ditches and portables<br \/>\nGrass covered sand uphill circular 900m gallop track<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_1189\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Sunshine-Tour-2016-31-1.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1189\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Sunshine-Tour-2016-31-1-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Competition Support - photo by Guillaume Beguin\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1189\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Sunshine-Tour-2016-31-1-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Sunshine-Tour-2016-31-1-768x512.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Sunshine-Tour-2016-31-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Sunshine-Tour-2016-31-1.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1189\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Competition Support &#8211; photo by Guillaume Beguin<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1104\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/IMG_6688.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1104\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/IMG_6688-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Coaching all ages\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1104\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/IMG_6688-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/IMG_6688.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1104\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Coaching all ages<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_1135\" style=\"width: 160px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Sunshine-Tour-2016-569-e1475408525323.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1135\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Sunshine-Tour-2016-569-e1475408525323-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Performance Analysis - photo by Guillaume Beguin\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-1135\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1135\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Performance Analysis &#8211; photo by Guillaume Beguin<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_1100\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/DSC_0817.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1100\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/DSC_0817-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Water Jump\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1100\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/DSC_0817-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/DSC_0817-768x512.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.sandhills.com.au\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/DSC_0817-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1100\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Water Jump<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Craig and Prue Barrett have a unique set of skills to guide you through all aspects of riding and horsemanship skills.
