Equestrian Centre - (27 members)

The Equestrian Centre [Afr: Beredesentrum] was established as a dog and equestrian centre at Voortrekker-hoogte (Thaba Tswane) in 1964. A decade later the equestrian centre was moved to the farm Welgegund at Potchefstroom. It trained and provided horse-mounted infantry and motorcyclists to SA Army units for area defence (counter-insurgency) purposes. The equestrian centre spawned a stud farm at De Aar in the Northern Cape in 1980.
