Rebecca Broussard International and National Developing Riders' Grants
2021 will be the last year the Rebecca Broussard International and National Developing Riders’ Grants will be offered. The committee would like to thank Jerome Broussard and the entire Broussard family for supporting these valuable grants for so many years.
Interviews for this year’s International and National Developing Rider’s Grants will be held at The Event at Rebecca Farm and will be limited to riders entered in both the CCI4*-L and the CCI4*-S. For those riders entered, please sign up for your interview at the show office upon arrival. Interviews will take place Tuesday through Thursday before your dressage tests.
Unlike previous years, stipends to assist with travel to the event are not being made available in 2021.
As of this date, 18 riders have benefited from these incredibly generous grants, and this year will see that number rise to 20. Recipients have made their mark at the highest levels of the sport with many going on to compete internationally. Many could be seen in action at the Kentucky Three-day Event 5* this year, and we congratulate all of them for their achievements.
While the developing rider grants are coming to an end, the Broussard family has asked the committee to explore other exciting grant opportunities for the coming years, so please keep an eye out for these to be announced.
The entire sport and our riders have benefited immensely from the kindness shown by the late Rebecca Broussard and her husband Jerome, as well as all the family. They have done so much to develop and grow the sport and for that, we are eternally thankful.
Lou Leslie,
Chair
The Rebecca Broussard International Developing Rider’s Committee

When Auburn University’s Alayna Backel jumped the final jump on her cross-country course today you couldn’t even hear the announcer over the mob of Auburn students, fans, and family members standing at the finish flags. As the last member of the Auburn War Eagles team to compete at the 2022 USEA Intercollegiate Eventing Championships, Backel’s double-clear cross-country round with Amy Dobbins’ 17-year-old Halflinger gelding Oliver Twist (Aurora x Ludora de Las Perlas) solidified Auburn’s first victory at the Intercollegiate Championships in three years on a cumulative team score of 79.23.
