Equine Canada Publishes Criteria for North American Junior & Young Rider Championships

On the same day as the dates have been announced by the United States Equestrian Federation, Equine Canada has published their criteria for the North American Junior & Young Rider Championships.

This is a surprising move by Equine Canada who continue to refuse to publish the 2016 Rio Olympic criteria citing concerns for the protection of athletes and intellectual property of volunteers, and prevent exploitation by other countries. 

EC had actually published a full statement to that effect last month, but oddly enough that has since been removed from their website. 

The annual competition, presented this year by Gotham North, will be held July 26-31, 2016 at the Colorado Horse Park.

This will be the fourth time the park has hosted the best Junior and Young Rider competitors from North America as they compete for prestigious Team and Individual medals. With unwavering support, Adequan will mark its sixth consecutive year as title sponsor of the event.

NAJYRC is fortunate to have dedicated sponsors supporting this event as the only FEI Championship held annually in North America, including Gotham North, U.S. Hunter Jumper Association, U.S. Dressage Federation, U.S. Eventing Association, Equine Canada, and the Federación Ecuestre Mexicana.
