A stalwart member of the U.S. Eventing squad since he was named USEA Young Rider of the Year in 2002, Faudree’s impressive resume has provided him the experiences to become a successful rider, trainer, and coach.
In 2003, Will was a member of the gold medal-winning team at the Pan American Games and received the Lionel Guerrand-Hermes Trophy for exemplifying the U.S. Equestrian Team’s ideals of sportsmanship and horsemanship. A traveling reserve for the 2004 Olympic team, Faudree rode on the 2006 FEI World Equestrian Games (WEG) team in Aachen, Germany. He later went on to be short-listed for the 2010 WEG and 2013 Olympic teams, and just finished 14th in the latest Kentucky Land Rover CCI5*.
Come listen in on what makes a horseman keep thriving, his thoughts on the recent Kentucky Land Rover CCI5*, and what lies ahead for this go-getter. It is a live interview, so anything can happen!

Balance and stability are fundamental to success in eventing, where precision and control are demanded across three distinct phases. At this year's USEA Annual Meeting and Convention, our partner, Bates Saddles' expert presentation on saddle fit and rider position highlighted a crucial yet often overlooked aspect of our sport: how small adjustments to our equipment can lead to significant improvements in our riding.
