By Joanie Morris

Lexington, KY – Pending final FEI approval, the USEF is announcing the following date and location for the 2010 Adequan FEI North American Junior/Young Rider Championships (NAJYRC). The United States Equestrian Federation (USEF) has received preliminary approval and is awaiting final allocation from the FEI Bureau.

Pending this approval, the NAJYRC will be held at the Kentucky Horse Park July 28-August 1, 2010. This is a unique opportunity to use a venue which has been completely redesigned. Less than two months later, the world will begin to arrive in Lexington, KY for the 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games.

As competitors begin to plan their 2010 competition seasons the USEF is providing this information so Juniors, Young Riders and their Chef d’Equipes can plan accordingly. In 2009, the Kentucky Horse Park welcomed a record number of Juniors and Young Riders for these Championships in the three Olympic disciplines of Dressage, Eventing and Jumping and the Western discipline of Reining. 

Vaulting will again hold an exhibition during the Championships and Endurance will run a CEIY2* concurrently in Louisville, KY.
