Lexington, Ky. - US Equestrian is pleased to announce the athletes selected for the 2023 Eventing Emerging Athlete Program.

The selected athletes will participate in a training session in Ocala, Fla., Jan. 16-20, 2023, which will include mounted sessions and unmounted lectures throughout the week.

The following athletes have been selected for the 2023 program and are listed in alphabetical order.
