About the USEA Emerging Athlete U21 Program (EA21)
The purpose of the USEA Emerging Athletes U21 Program (EA21) is to identify and provide consistent quality instruction to the next generation of elite event riders. The aim is to create a pipeline for potential team riders by identifying and developing young talent, improving horsemanship and riding skills, and training and improving skills and consistency.
The USEA Emerging Athletes U21 Program was launched in 2022 with a model of five summertime regional clinics taught by selected USEA Eventing Coaches Program (ECP) instructors, leading to a winter national camp consisting of selected Young Riders from the regional clinics. Athletes who are 21 years or younger, are current members of their USEA Young Rider Area program, and are established at the Training Level or higher, are eligible to apply for the EA21 program.

My story began in July of 1995 when my parents bought my dream horse, B.B. Babauska, “Babs,” from Bruce Davidson when I was 17 years old. She was part of Bruce’s homebred program and related to the great JJ Babu.
Andrea Baxter has announced her five-star horse Indy 500 died this week due to complications from foaling. She was 19.
