Event Description: The Youth Equestrian Development Association (YEDA) National Championship Week at Virginia Horse Center from June 10-13 2027 . This Nationals competition will bring together over 500 youth riders from 4th-12th grades and adult alumni riders and 60 teams across 37 states.

The competition will showcase classes in Western horsemanship, reining, and patterns under YEDA’s collegiate-style catch-riding system, where riders demonstrate skill, adaptability, and poise by competing on horses they do not own. YEDA riders have earned a spot in this event by being the Nation’s top riders throughout the season and will be awarded National Championship titles.

This event is free and open to the public! Come support these young riders as they discover the excitement, responsibility, and life lessons that come with equestrian sport.
