Nominees may come from all corners of the country and will be recognized for their contribution to the sport as a teacher and coach, whether their students are active in competitive sport or are recreational sport participants.

Equine Canada coaching awards will be presented for Instructor/Instructor of Beginners, Coach 1, Coach 2, Coach 3, Coach 4, Competition Coach and High Performance Coach Candidate for each discipline when applicable.
