United States Eventing Association

The United States Eventing Association (USEA) is proud to announce the renewal of its sponsorship with the United States Pony Club, Inc. (USPC) for 2025.

Trainers are some of the most important people in our lives. They develop our skills, ensure that our horses receive quality care, and look out for our best interests as equestrians.

The United States Eventing Association (USEA) is pleased to announce the continued partnership with Nunn Finer as the Title Sponsor of the USEA Overall Leaderboards for 2025. A steadfast supporter of the USEA for over three decades, Nunn Finer plays a pivotal role in funding overall leaderboard cash prizes and recognizing the hard work and achievements of eventers across all levels.

Success demands peak performance from your horse, and nutrition plays a pivotal role in achieving that goal. With the physical and mental demands of training and competition, maintaining optimal gut health is essential. Standlee’s Gastric Support and Smart Carb™ forage products are designed to fuel your horse while addressing key digestive health concerns.

The holidays are over, and the height of eventing season will be here before you know it! To help expedite your return from winter, I thought I would share a few of my thoughts surrounding bringing horses back into work as well as a few conditioning tips that you can tweak to meet your own needs. Let this help motivate you to get out there and get started!

The USEA is thrilled to announce Horse Illustrated has joined the USEA as a media partner, as well as a contributing level sponsor of the 2025 USEA Intercollegiate and Interscholastic Eventing Championships, USEA Emerging Athletes U21 program, and the USEA Volunteer Incentive Program.

And just like that—2025 is upon us! Thinking about the year ahead can be exciting and a little overwhelming. You are not alone! Let’s talk through a few strategies I use this time of year to mentally and physically prepare for making the most out of the upcoming year.

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.

Possibly the only thing more unsettling than being a horse owner experiencing an infectious disease outbreak on their farm is to be a veterinarian who experiences one.
