Guidelines for Establishing Cooperative Sponsorship in OHSET Equestrian Programs

This document outlines essential guidelines for establishing cooperative sponsorship (Co-Ops) in OHSET (Oregon High School Equestrian Teams) to support schools lacking a formal OHSET team. It emphasizes that cooperative sponsorship should stem from a genuine need, not convenience. A thorough process must be undertaken to demonstrate efforts to form an OHSET team, including outreach to school officials, community engagement, and documentation of attempts. The approval process for Co-Ops requires school official signatures, and applications are reviewed based on merit during board meetings.

  2. Cooperative Sponsorship (Co-Ops) • Cooperative sponsorship should not be for convenience, but due to necessity • Before applying for a Co-Op, a diligent effort must be made to create an OHSET team at that school • Document all steps taken to create a team at the school, including those that did not work.

  3. Co-Op Guidelines(cont.) • Typical steps to demonstrate efforts taken to create an OHSET Team include: • Contact with school officials to test interest and gain assistance • Canvassing of the school to create interest in OHSET • Flyers • Phone Calls • Lunch meetings • Radio Announcements • School Announcements

  4. Co-Op Guidelines(cont.) • Plan an evening meeting place and time and invite all interested athletes & parents • Show OHSET promotional information to stimulate the interest • Ask for a spot on the next school district board meeting • Get the local horse community to attend the board meeting to support your efforts

  5. Co-Op Guidelines(cont.) • Remember what that only three things are needed to qualify as a team: • One rider + Advisor + School approval as a high school varsity team or high school club • If you have diligently exhausted all options with little or no response, and cannot create a school team, then and only then does the cooperative team become an option.

  6. Cooperative Sponsorship Process • Each application evaluated and voted upon based on individual merit. • Only Schools, Districts, or State organizations may apply for cooperative sponsorship, not families or individuals. • Recruitment of athletes is to be strongly discouraged; any application with that intent will be denied.

  7. Standard Co-Ops • Sponsoring teams – less than ten (10) athletes • Applying teams - less than five (5) athletes • Applying schools request Co-Op with nearest school with an OHSET team.

  8. Standard Co-Ops - Approval Process • Authorized school official of the sponsoring school must sign the application • Authorized school official of the applying school must be informed of the application • Completed application reviewed for approval at next board meeting, District or State • Approved Team Co-op’s are one year
