Why Join EC?

If you’re ready to start competing at EC sanctioned competitions across Canada, you will need to purchase an EC sport licence. Sport licences are available in 4 levels: bronze, silver, gold or platinum, based on the type of competition you wish to compete in.

It’s also possible to purchase one-time upgrades to levels if you’d like to try a level up.

Having an EC sport licence enables you to access the following value-added benefits:

• Exclusive member discounts with our official sponsors
• Free eLearning courses for Safe Sport and Concussion education
• Free eLearning course for the new Equine Care Program and Equine Welfare
• Volunteer on operational committees or task forces

Obtaining an EC Sport Licence is quick and convenient and done all online through the My-EC portal.

But First Things First*  – Before purchasing your EC Sport Licence, you first need to join or renew with your Provincial/Territorial Sport Organization (PTSO). You’ll need your valid PTSO number to proceed with your EC purchase. (*Non-residents exempted)
