Launched at Badminton Horse Trials earlier this month, the BGA provides support and advice to working grooms and aims to continually improve the recognition of its members as professionals. SPILLERS®, together with WINERGY® have signed up to help fund this worthy initiative for the next 12 months.

SPILLERS® have also been the official supplier to the British Equestrian Team for the past 38 years.  

The BGA was founded by Lucy Katan, a former elite groom and grooms representative for the British Equestrian Federation (BEF). Membership is open to grooms from all equestrian disciplines, from those working in riding schools to international competition grooms. As well as providing support and advice the BGA offers some excellent member benefits.

SPILLERS® Brand Manager Sarah Hill said: “Good grooms are crucial to the success of the UK’s equestrian industry at every level and Lucy’s highly commendable initiative gives them the representation and voice they deserve. We wish the BGA every success and will be doing everything we can to support it in its inaugural year.”
