The 2013 Leaderboard Point System and Eligibility Requirements are now updated on the USEA website. To access the information directly you can click here or go to Competitions -> Awards -> Resources -> Leaderboard Point System.
The major change from previous years is that a horse or rider can move up a level, but will still retain the leaderboard points earned at the lower level. For example: if you are on the Junior Training Rider leaderboard with 45 points and you move up and complete more than two Preliminary level competitions, then you will keep your 45 points on the Junior Training Rider leaderboard. But, after completing more than two Preliminary level competitions, any further points earned at the training level, will not be applied to the Training level leaderboard.
The point chart has also been updated to reflect the Novice Three-Day and Beginner Novice Three-Day point values. Points for the BN3D and N3D are the same as a CIC* while a T3D and P3D are equivalent to a CCI*.

Group rides are an important tool to include in the education of both riders and horses to give them a well-rounded education, enhance the rider’s skills, and give confidence to both horses and riders. Managed well, group rides also add to the enjoyment of our sport.
