LEXINGTON, Ky.--USEF announced that the Show Jumping Talent Search Finals–East, the Hunter Seat Medal Finals, the Junior Jumper National Championships and the WIHS Championship Finals have all been moved to the Tryon International Equestrian Center (TIEC)

The US Equestrian staff along with the Board of Directors and show management teams for the Pennsylvania National Horse Show and Washington International Horse Show worked closely together to find the best venue for these events following the cancellation last week of the PNHS and WIHS due to multiple issues resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Tryon was selected as the best location to host these events because of the size and scope of the facility, its central location relative to other venues, the existing competitions on the calendar and its proven success in hosting events since reopening in June 2020.

 

THE HUNTER Seat Medal Finals and the Junior Jumper National Championships (Prix des States) will both be held Oct. 8-11.

The  Show Jumping Talent Search Finals–East will be contested Oct. 15-18, the WIHS Equitation Finals and WIHS Pony Equitation Finals from Oct. 23-25 and the WIHS Children’s and Adult Hunter and Jumper Finals will finish the seies Oct. 20-25.

“We are pleased to accommodate the USEF, PNHS and WIHS special fall championships at Ttron," said Sharon Decker, President of Tryon Equestrian Partners – Carolinas Operations. "Each year competitors work hard to qualify for these year-end events. In what has been a remarkably challenging year, we plan to build off of the success and learning we have experienced to date operating nine weeks of successful competition to offer a safe and celebratory competition environment for these events in partnership with their respective organizing committees.”

All events will be spectator free.

The show organizers will continuously monitor the COVID-19 status and will adjust or amend shows based on the guidance from federal, state, and other public health officials.

Complete show schedules are available.

The digital prize lists, stabling and entry information will go live next week.

Entries and stabling will be managed for each event separately by PNHS, WIHS and USEF Platinum Performance Talent Search.
