The Turnham Green/USEF Junior Jumper National Championships and Prix des States provide an opportunity for U.S. junior riders to compete against their peers over multiple days at the Pennsylvania National Horse Show. The championship features both the Prix des States team competition – with teams fielded by USEF Zone – and an individual championship.
Since 1968, the Dover Saddlery/USEF Hunter Seat Medal Final has called the PNHS home.
A win in the class is a coveted prize and proves to be a significant stepping-stone for international competitions, as a great number of the past winners have gone on to represent the U.S. internationally. Find out more about all that USEF has to offer at www.usef.org.
