Amateurs Invited to Participate in Sporthorse Research Study
Amateurs who own horses and compete in Dressage, Show Jumping and/or Eventing are invited to participate in a research study involving a short, 10 minute online survey. This study is being conducted by Michael Willham from Otterbein University to discover behavioral patterns with new market media trends in the horse industry, specifically the advertising considerations of buying and selling sporthorses.
Michael is not just a researcher, he is also a Preliminary/1* level Eventer and USDF Bronze Medalist. Michael also competes with the University of Otterbein's Eventing Team. He is combining his passion for horses with his marketing studies in order to create the first known study on Sporthorse marketing.
To partake in this study, follow the link to complete a ten minute online survey. Enter the drawing at the end of the survey for a chance to win one of four $25 SmartPak gift cards! Your answers in this study as well as your identity will remain confidential. Your participation is voluntary and you are free to withdraw at any time.

Start Your Engines—Starter Level to Be USEA Recognized for 2024 Eventing Season
At the August USEA Board of Governors meeting, a proposition was brought forth to officially recognize what is commonly referred to as “Starter level” as a USEA division. For many years now, Starter level has been offered as a test at USEA approved events. The decision to recognize the level officially would allow those competing in Starter level divisions to receive recognition on the USEA Leaderboards and to compete at the Starter level at the USEA American Eventing Championships (AEC) in the future. The motion was approved to recognize this level, and the USEA staff have been hard at work preparing all of the rules, guidelines, and standards that will go along with this level’s recognition for the 2024 season.
