George Morris, the legendary horseman and U.S. show jumping chef d’Equipe, will lead these rising stars in a comprehensive program in horsemastership. ‘Horsemastership’ encompasses not only mounted sessions but stable management, veterinary care and nutrition. Clinics will be conducted by experts in the field. The aim of the training session is to develop a pipeline of young “horsemasters” for future U.S. Equestrian Teams.
Auditing of the mounted and educational sessions is free and open to the public. The auditor’s schedule is available here: http://usefnetwork.s3.amazonaws.com/pdfs/00/00/00/02/50/2012+auditor+schedule.pdf.
The USEFNetwork.com presented by Smartpak will host wall-to-wall coverage from the George Morris Horse Mastership Training Session presented by USHJA and Adequan. For those who cannot attend in person, the morning riding sessions will be broadcast live each morning. The sessions will be archived as video-on-demand along the educational clinics, photos, and detailed information about all the participants.
