The agreed next steps were: -
- Uniting the industry
- Securing a long-term racing agreement at Globe Derby Park
- Implementing strategies for growth
- Regular meetings involving all clubs and industry organisations.
In commenting on the outcomes of the meeting, HRSA Chairman George Fiacchi, and SA BOTRA President Lee-Ann Pangrazio’ stated: “It was great to have the opportunity to discuss harness racing as a collective. While there is a lot of hard work to come, we nonetheless are excited by the opportunities discussed for the future and look forward to working together as a team.”
