The USEA’s Emerging Athlete 21 National Camp taught by David O’Connor kicks off in a little over ten days in Ocala, Florida. The camp is comprised of athletes who attended the five regional clinics that took place earlier this year throughout the country. Audrey attended the East II Clinic held at Stable View in Aiken, SC back in July. The National Camp list was announced back in September naming Eliza Quigley for East I Clinic and Audrey as the first alternate for East II. We’re so excited for both of these riders and stay tuned for the inside scoop from USEA!
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) coaches, 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.
