SEMF and James Lala are thrilled to welcome back Phelps Media Group, sponsor of the Southeast Junior Medal, for the Fourth year in a row. “Phelps has been with us from the very beginning, and for that I am so very grateful,” said James Lala, creator and co-manager of the event. James credits this long standing relationship to the fact that SEMF is a unique event that targets all skill levels from the most advanced competitors that hope to go on to Indoors and Medal Finals, to those who are finishing up their year at the show in Jacksonville.
Lala sought out the support and expertise of Mason Phelps, one of the founders of the prestigious New England Medal Final, the inspiration for Southeast Medal Finals. Lala is familiar with the popularity of New England Medal Finals amongst northern riders, and wanted to provide a similar opportunity for riders in the south, so the partnership between Phelps and SEMF was a natural fit. Phelps realizes the importance of this event and how it promotes every aspect of the equestrian sport, from the grassroots to the top competitor with an emphasis on quality, sportsmanship and fun!
