This past week multiple positive cases of African Horse Sickness were confirmed in Gauteng and the rest of the country. Make sure to protect your horse against the deadly infection.

𝟭. 𝗘𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. Take temperatures daily. Check for swellings around the eyes, legs and body.

𝟮. 𝗨𝘀𝗲 𝗮 𝘃𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗮 𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗴𝗻𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘀. Take bloods for confirmation. Unfortunately, blood results can take a few days but it helps to confirm what virus is causing the symptoms. It helps the vaccine producers to update the vaccines. It helps the state to control equine movement and protect our export market. It helps your vet to know what viruses are active in the area so that other patients can be diagnosed earlier.

𝟯. 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝘀𝘆𝗺𝗽𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗔𝗦𝗔𝗣. Anti-inflammatories and heart supportive medication are available to increase your horse's chance of survival. Please don't treat with unregistered products as some of these products can put a lot of strain on the already compromised organs.

𝟰. 𝗥𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲. Control midges with a good DEET containing product like Vetsbtands Summer Spray. Stay away from products containing ineffective ingredients like citronella oil.

𝟱. 𝗩𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆. Buy AHS vaccines in advance as stocks are very scarce during vaccination season. (We have limited AHS stock available currently!). Do not use unregistered vaccines!!!

Coach them, and they will learn.
Challenge them, and they will grow.
Believe in them, and they will win...

One of the many joys of coaching and leading is seeing those who you work with grow and thrive as they master new skills, become better riders, and most importantly learn the valuable life skills presented through our sport...

Communication is a two-way street. It takes two people to have a conversation...

A great coach listens to their students , You know how they feel about training, if they’re experiencing any niggles or pains, and also share their goals so as the coach you can help them reach their full potential.

It’s all about mutual respect!!!

Coaches teach students how to confront competition and learn from it in constructive ways that help to build character and skills and teach them to not give up easily...

Any great coach will explain to students that achieving amazing things in our sport is all about dedication in pursuing a goal despite the ups and downs.

A great coach not only tells their students what to do — what sessions to perform and when to take it easy — but they tell their students WHY they are doing it.!!

A passionate coach can talk about their sport for hours. They often show great discipline and commitment to each of their students, going above and beyond to support them...

Many instructors even coach in an unpaid or volunteer role — these are the ones who really love what they do!!

A great coach has an infectious energy!!

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

I have seen so many instructors forget the most important rule of them all, and I find it extremely concerning, and I would just like to remind them about :

☆ The golden rule in being a great coach ... "Build your riders up, Don't break them down." !☆
