Vero Beach, Florida - The Professional Riders Organization, Equiventures LLC and What's Up Productions LLC have recently explored forming a joint venture between the parties for the purpose of producing online broadcasts for the PRO Tour Series. Each entity brought it's respective strengths to the table to start to develop this potential partnership by planning and producing a good online broadcast for Plantation Field International Horse Trials. PRO brought the PRO Tour Series, which was created by our membership in 2010, as well as the good will associated with the Professional Riders Organization. Equiventures provided their commercial expertise to this endeavor and What's Up Productions provided it's expertise in video and broadcast workflows.
At this time, however, PRO has decided to go in a different direction as we move forward with PRO TV and the PRO Tour Series. Each of these parties will pursue their independent paths moving towards our mutual desire to benefit the sport of eventing and all of its participants.
PRO TV will continue online broadcasts on the PRO TV Livestream channel, http://new.livestream.com/PROTV Media players will be embedded on event websites. A Livestream App for TV, iPhone, iPad and Android can also be downloaded from the iTunes Store and Google Play. Follow the events on the PRO TV channel to receive automatic updates on any schedule changes.
The Professional Riders Organization plans a full broadcast schedule of the 2015 PRO Tour Series. Sponsored segments and in-stream video advertising is available. Interested parties should contact the Professional Riders Organization.

Familiarizing yourself with the key players at each horse trial is an important step to your success at your next competition. One of those important figures is the show secretary. Think of the show secretary as the mastermind behind most of the organizational efforts related to each horse trial. They manage entries, the show schedule, ride times, stabling, and so much more. Without the hard work of the show secretary and their office staff, a horse trial simply would not be able to operate.
