ADULT TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS
The Adams Horse Supply USEA Adult Team
Championships (ATC), which debuted in
2014, is the capstone event for the USEA
Area Adult Team Challenges, providing
adults the chance to compete as a team
and represent their Area of the country in a
friendly and fun environment. The USEA is
glad to welcome the ATC back to the AEC.
Many adult eventers are familiar with the Adams Horse Supply USEA Adult Team
Challenge, which has been offered for over 20 years to foster team competition
and camaraderie across the country.
Historically, Adult Riders had three regional Team Challenges in which to compete
with fellow adults in a team environment, with the locations changing each year.
In 2013, the USEA Adult Rider Coordinators voted to move to support Adult Team
Challenges taking place in all 10 Areas across the country, with the finale being
the ATC at the AEC.
Each Area can send up to eight teams from Beginner Novice through Preliminary
level to the ATC, and each Area has created their own qualifications or qualifying
events to be selected for teams. However, national qualifications are also in place
to make sure that ATC riders are prepared to ride the same championship level
courses as the AEC competitors. ATC teams will earn ribbons and awards for
placing.
Adult Riders know how to have a good time, and there is no doubt they will bring
an increased level of excitement and camaraderie that we love to see at the AEC!
