In the past, a prestigious group of vaulters, known as the 'Friendship Team' have come together and put on entertaining displays during competitor parties and dinners at the Championships, however this marks an entirely new opportunity for the sport of equestrian vaulting.
The FEI North American Junior/Young Rider Championships have hosted a unique series of championships for an array of International competitors for many years; often featuring athletes that go on to represent their countries in the Olympic games.
Although vaulting will only be featured as a demonstration sport, the event will be judged and subject to many rules and organizational outlines of the Championships, as well as benefiting from the same venue and timeframe.
The Young Riders organizational staff have been adamant about promoting other disciplines in equestrian sport, and have stated a goal of adding an additional discipline at some level each year.
