FAQ

What is Intercollegiate Eventing?

The USEA’s Intercollegiate Eventing Program allows students to continue competing through college while representing their school. Learn more HERE.

​

Do I have to tryout?

No! UK Eventing welcomes all Eventing enthusiasts!

 

Do I need to own/lease my own horse?

Yes, if you wish to compete with the team at Intercollegiate Events, as we do not provide team horses. However, we offer a social membership for those who want to be a part of the team but do not have a horse or do not want to compete.

 

Where can I keep my horse?

UK does not have a “team barn,” so members are free to choose any facility to board their horse. Check out our barn list HERE for a list of local facilities where many of our current members board.

Does the team offer scholarships?

Because UK Eventing is a club sport, we are not funded by the school and cannot offer scholarships.However, the University of Kentucky does offer many scholarships for Equine Science & Management students, learn more HERE.

What kind of activities do members participate in?

Each year, UK Eventing hosts various clinics and events, both riding and non-riding. Our team has put on clinics with top Eventing professionals, schooling jumper shows at local facilities, and team social events like bowling, axe throwing, and local trail rides.
