    About USDF Regional Championships

    These championships recognize the outstanding efforts of riders in each USDF region and provide an excellent opportunity for spectators to view the top competitors in their respective regions.  Additionally, the top junior/young rider, amateur, and open riders at each of the championships, who have submitted a declaration of intent and completed all other requirements, will receive an invitation to compete at the US Dressage Finals presented by Adequan®. 

    Dina Sapienza of Great American Insurance Group added, “Our role as title sponsor of the regional championships has afforded a great opportunity to acknowledge outstanding individuals and the sport of dressage.”

    Competitors qualify for Great American/USDF Regional Championships by competing in designated qualifying classes throughout the year at USEF-licensed/USDF-recognized dressage competitions. 

    For more information on the regional championship program, or the US Dressage Finals presented by Adequan®, visit the USDF website at www.usdf.org or contact regchamps@usdf.org.

    Founded in 1973, the United States Dressage Federation is a nonprofit membership organization dedicated to education, recognition of achievement, and promotion of dressage.
