2023 Rule Change Proposal Comment Period Now Open

By Leslie Mintz - USEA Staff

Earlier this year the USEA announced a new rule change proposal schedule for the 2023 eventing season in an effort to keep the membership better informed, and it is now time for the membership to weigh in on rule change proposals for 2023.

As a reminder, all rules for eventing are under the jurisdiction of the US Equestrian Federation (USEF) and the U.S. Eventing Association (USEA) only has the ability to put forth rule changes proposals for consideration by the USEF.

The online eventing rule change proposal comment portal is now open and the USEA encourages all members to participate in providing feedback on the 2023 rule change proposals.

Access the portal here and login using your USEA Online Services account.

The comment period ends on January 17, 2022, so be sure to submit your survey before that date.

USEA Annual Meeting & Convention attendees had the opportunity to discuss the rule change proposals in person at the annual Rule Change Open Forum. Read a recap of the meeting here or watch the full video below.
