WORKING FOR YOU - OUR JUMPING COMMUNITY
Jumping is one of the key equestrian sport disciplines in Victoria. We are committed to building and improving the services we deliver to support our membership to enable them to live their equestrian dream.
Recently Equestrian Victoria (EV) and Jumping Victoria (JV) have been working together to bring the jumping community enhanced competition experiences and opportunities.
We know that the Jumping community is a strong one. We recognise the social fabric that connects you and provides you, as members, with a unique sense of belonging each time you come together. And we want to celebrate and enhance Jumping to make it truly great for everyone.

JUMPING LICENCES INCREASE | FAQ FOR RIDERS
Why am I paying an extra $20 on my Jumping License?
We want you and your family to enjoy professional, consistent events that provide the very best experience. Jumping Victoria recognises that in an ever changing, fast paced world, in order to achieve this, we need to be proactive, and this takes investment.
- WE NEED TO INVEST IN YOUR JUMPING VICTORIA WORKFORCE.
We want to give you experienced, suitably trained Stewards and Marshalls at every event, across all competition tiers, who provide a quality, expert service every time you are greeted at the gate as you prepare to enter the course.
We want more highly qualified and experienced course designers, at all levels state-wide, providing you with fresh, exciting and challenging courses every time you compete.
And we want to support our existing or aspiring judges, through a clearly defined pathway, so we maintain and build our capacity for the future. - WE WANT TO GIVE YOU CONFIDENCE AND EFFICIENCY
You deserve to participate in events where results are housed in a digital database that makes it easy for you to access at any time, and to be confident that your results are accurate.
You also deserve to participate in events where processes that can be automated, are automated. - WE BELIEVE IN YOUR EQUESTRIAN DREAM
We want to create a program that supports jumpers to be involved at recognised events around the country as well as bringing major events to Victoria.
Your investment will support all of the above, and more.
Where does the money go?
Your Jumping License of $55 including GST will be invested as follows:
- $25 invested directly in Jumping Victoria, to be spent on the identified Strategic Initiatives as determined by the JV Committee and supported by the findings in the community consultation and Strategic Review Report;
- $30 will be retained by EV to cover administration, staffing and overarching sports management.
Who will manage the money?
The JV Committee will manage the expenditure and allocation of funds and a JV Policy, Procedure and annual budget will be created in conjunction with EV to provide transparency and accountability.
How will I know where the money is being spent?
We will set annual targets against our priorities and will report regularly against those to you.
We will also celebrate our achievements along the way.
What happens if there is money “left over”?
EV has recently approved a policy whereby surplus funds from within sport disciplines will be recognised as retained earnings on the EV Balance Sheet.
Surplus JV funds will support future projects.
