ATTENTION ALL SPORT HORSE OWNERS, TRAINERS AND BREEDERS:
The purpose of this program is to bridge the gap between the current USDF Sport Horse In-Hand Program and the USEF Young Horse Program. Those interested in other sport horse disciplines are encouraged to audit, as attending this program can be beneficial to anyone involved with young sport horses.

“The USDF is excited to bring this much needed educational opportunity to the USDF membership and the dressage community, as well as other sport horse disciplines,” added Katherine Robertson, USDF SeniorEducationPrograms Coordinator.
For more information about the new USDF Sport Horse Prospect Development Program, contact the USDF office at shprospect@usdf.org, or call(859) 971-2277.

NEDA Liaison for this program is Elizabeth Preston.
