The 2008 winner was one of our very own - Region 9's dressage rider Mystere "Misty" Moyes. Congratulations Misty! The North American Jr/Young Riders Championships – Overview This unique and prestigious competition brings together the top advanced young riders from the North American continent to compete in dressage, eventing and show jumping. The North American Jr/Young Rider Championships is an FEI competition, rated as a CDIOY, which means that it is one of the highest rated FEI competitions. Although this should be a fun and rewarding experience for all riders, the serious nature of this competition needs to be realized. Qualifying to ride at this competition is an accomplishment in itself. However, many riders have serious aspirations to make the top 12, or maybe win a medal. Some riders have a goal to one day ride on the US Equestrian Team and the results of this competition may help them toward that goal. This competition is also unique because it is often the first chance for a young competitor to ride on a team. This is an opportunity to train future team members, learning how to achieve a common goal through cooperation. The importance of teamwork and sportsmanship cannot be over emphasized.
