Through this grant, one junior rider with limited financial resources will be granted $1,000 to compete in a national equitation championship at a fence height of 3' or higher that they have qualified for.
The championships will follow the same two-round format as the regular National Hunter Derby class but will be offered in three sections: Open, Amateurs and Juniors.
You can learn what the judges learn by virtually auditing one of USHJA's Licensed Officials Clinics! For $50, take a look into a judge's mind and learn about what they look for in Hunter Breeding classes on April 19-20 from 8:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.
*The original April webinar, Quickbooks with Holly Frenzel, has been postponed until July.
