New director general for SJAI

THE Show Jumping Association of Ireland (SJAI) has appointed a director general almost a year after it dispensed with the previous incumbent.

The man taking up the position from January 2 is Patrick Cully.

In doing so, the 42-year-old from Coonough, Carbery, Co Kildare, will be relinquishing his post as maintenance director with Hewlett-Packard, for whom he has worked for 11 years.
