Don't miss out on your opportunity to provide feedback on the rule change proposals being presented to the USEF which would go into effect on December 1, 2023 for the 2024 eventing season! The commentary period for USEA members closes on January 9, 2023, leaving just two days remaining in the commentary period. Be sure to submit your survey asap!
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 2024 rule change proposals.
Access the portal here and login using your USEA Online Services account.
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.

The USEA is saddened to hear of the sudden passing of Dr. Timothy “Tim” Holekamp on April 19. He was 79.
While we all attend the Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event for the competition, the next best thing about the event is definitely the shopping! The USEA is excited to be back on-site at the Kentucky Horse Park for the competition this year and to debut some all-new apparel items for the 2025 season. Here is a sneak preview of what you can expect to see at our booth, located just behind the Rolex Stadium next to the large Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event booth, this year.
They don't call it the "Best Weekend All Year" for no reason! If you love the sport of eventing (or just horses in general) the Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event is most likely a staple on your calendar or a must-see on your bucket list. This week, thousands of eventing lovers will flock to the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, Kentucky, for one of two U.S.-based five-stars that takes place each year, as well as top-shelf CCI4*-S competition and two nights of spectacular show jumping.
Will you be at the Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event this year? Are you a member of the USEA Adult Rider Program?

The USEA-hosted event will take place at 8:30 a.m. EST on Thursday, April 24.
