Event Sponsorship

Off the Track WA (OTTWA) is dedicated to promoting the competitive use of retired racehorses in equestrian sports across Western Australia. Each year, we proudly sponsor hundreds of metropolitan and regional equestrian events, showcasing the versatility of Standardbreds and Thoroughbreds as both pleasure and competitive animals.

Our sponsorship is open to all equestrian disciplines, emphasizing the significant role that clubs and organizations play in this initiative. By supporting these events, OTTWA connects and supports a large variety and number of off the track horse owners and riders. OTTWA would like to acknowledge the important role the clubs and organisations receiving this sponsorship play in achieving this.

Sponsored Events offer OTTWA branded merchandise and prizing to competitors with financial support to larger events and committees that include exclusive OTT classes, further promoting retired racehorses in their second careers.
