event History
Above: Tom McDermott and Cooley Gangster, presented with the EA Cup by CEO of Equestrian Australia, Darren Gocher.
The EFA Perpetual Cup (now the EA Perpetual Cup) was donated by the President of the Equestrian Federation of Australia (NSW Branch) and first presented in 1951. It is awarded to the owner of the winning Horse in Class 857 (Jumping Contest Table A, Article 238, 2.2.), the Section 1 Final.
The EFA Perpetual Cup is a twin handled electroplated silver rose bowl with a wire cover, raised on a circular timber base. It was probably made by WJ Sanders of Sydney and was retailed by Fairfax & Roberts.
In 2024 the trophy was presented to Tom McDermott and ‘Cooley Gangster’ on behalf of owner Tim Boland.
