Darren Simpson resides in Woodford in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland with his wife Sharon, having been a Reining Australia judge for over 12 years having judged nationally throughout this time.

Darren also is a reining horse trainer at Equine Communications, specialising in colt starting and coaching services for clients and has been training and campaigning reiners for over 15 years. Achieving numerous national championships across his career in reining competitions.

Darren became a Reining Judge to learn more about the sport he loved and it has enabled him to travel extensively with his wife as scribe Sharon. They make a great asset to any major show across the country. Darren is well known for his consistency and fairness in his scoring and style of judging. Darren is keen to once again go further into judging Stockmans Challenge and Working Cowhorse events.

Since judging for this period of time, Darren enjoys the improvements that he sees in the riders and quality of horses coming through.
Darren is a Reining Australia member and a strong advocate for the judging program as it has accountability for the scoring process and the training.
