2015 U.S. Dressage Championships

The final rankings for the 2015 U.S. Dressage Championships, to be held in Wellington, Florida, on 8 - 12 December 2015, have been published by the United States Equestrian Federation. Finalists were able to boost their average score by achieving results of a 10-month period.

The 2015 U.S. Small and Big Tour Championships have relocated from their usual place and date, the USET Headquarters in Gladstone, NJ, normally in June, to Wellington, Florida in December for the first time.

The 2015 U.S. Pony, Junior, Young Rider and U25 Championships were already held in Wayne, ILL, in August.

The U.S. Grand Prix Championship will also be a qualifying competition for riders seeking to go to Europe to compete in what will be the U.S. Rio Olympic observation events.

The 2015 U.S. Dressage Championships will be judged by Gary Rockwell, Linda Zang, Hans Christian Matthiesen, Peter Holler, and Christof Umbach.
