The 2025 USEA American Eventing Championships (AEC) presented by Nutrena Feeds was a major equestrian event held at Galway Downs, California, featuring nearly 400 horse and rider combinations competing across multiple divisions. The event crowned 23 individual and 5 team champions, including the prestigious $60,000 Adequan USEA Advanced Final and the Adams Horse Supply USEA Adult Team Championships (ATC). Thanks to generous sponsorship from Nutrena Feeds, Adequan, Bates Saddles, Marshall+Sterling, ARMA, PulseVet, Schneiders Saddlery, SmartEquine, Standlee, Adams Horse Supply, and many others, the USEA was able to offer over $100,000 in prize money, gifts, and in-kind contributions to competitors.
The AEC serves as the pinnacle national championship for eventing riders from Starter to Advanced levels, drawing top juniors, amateurs, and professionals from across North America. The Adequan Advanced Final is a highlight, offering $60,000 in prize money to elite competitors who qualify through prior advanced-level events. The Adult Team Championships provide a fun, team-based competition for adult riders representing their USEA Areas. The 2026 AEC is scheduled for August 25-30 at The Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, KY, continuing the tradition of high-level competition supported by a broad network of sponsors dedicated to the sport’s growth and success.
