Will Coleman began his riding career when he was just 6 years old, riding his Shetland Pony, TJ, in the Virginia hunt fields with family and dabbling in multiple disciplines. Coleman’s interest in Eventing was cultivated when he attended a clinic with Karen and David O’Connor and later went to work for them in the summers. Coleman’s youth career reached a pinnacle in 2001 when he was the individual gold medalist at the North American Youth Championships. Coleman became the first U.S. athlete to win the Bramham CCI4*-L in 2003 and made his CCI5*-L debut that same year with a completion at Burghley. The following year Coleman was named to the U.S. Eventing Team short list for the 2004 Athens Olympics and later was named to the U.S. Eventing Team at the 2012 London Olympics. Coleman made history in 2021, riding Off The Record (Timmy), owned by Off The Record Syndicate LLC, to victory at the CCIO4*-S at CHIO Aachen, becoming the first American to ever win the prestigious event. The following year, the pair were part of the silver medal-winning U.S. team at the 2022 FEI Eventing World Championship in Pratoni del Vivaro, Italy. In 2024 the pair finished 3^rd at the competitive CCI4*-S at the Kentucky Three-Day Event and Coleman was selected to his second U.S. Olympic Eventing Team with Off The Record 2024 Paris Olympic Games. Before completing Les 5 Etoiles de Pau at the end of the year, the combination won The Fork at Tryon CCI4*-S. In total, Coleman and Off The Record have notched over 35 international starts in their career together with over six wins and over twenty top 5 finishes.
