The mission of the USEF Developing Athlete Program is to provide guidance and educational resources to cultivate selected athlete/equine combinations who display the potential to improve the national standard of the sport and eventually contribute to a U.S. Team score at FEI Driving or Para Driving World Championships. Athletes wishing to apply for the Program must complete the application on your Athlete Dashboard; applications open in May and November of each year.
