The world class eventer Jock Paget will be returning to his mother country New Zealand. After coming to Great-Britain in 2010 it's time for a new career for the 32 year old eventer. This year he was part of the Olympic team, but had to withdraw when his horse injured himself in his stable.
He will make a new career coaching in the ESNZ performance coaching programme. A coaching programma to improve the results of the home team. "Coaching is something I really enjoy doing. I want to become a world-class coach and I believe this is the programme to do that in. It's very exciting", said Paget.
He and his wife Tegan will move back later this year and will set up house in the Central North Island. Both his horses Angus Blue and the retired Clifton Promise will move back home with the family.
Besides the coaching programme he will focus on the World Equestrian Games in 2018 as well on the Tokyo Olympics. "I won't be able to have the same size team i have done, so I will now only have horses I think are going to be world-beaters".
