Traverse City, Mich. – Flintfields Horse Park is once again welcoming competitors in the 2024 Adequan®/USEF Junior Hunter National Championship – East (JHNC). Nearly 350 entries are set to compete for national champion titles in a total of eight sections across the 3’6” and 3’3” heights.
The JHNC consists of three phases—a classic round, under saddle phase, and a handy hunter round. The jumping phases count for 40% of the total score each and the under saddle makes up the remaining 20%. This year, all jumping phases for both heights will take place in Flintfields Horse Park’s iconic Turtle Creek Casino & Hotel International Ring.
Competition in the JHNC will kick off with the first of the classic rounds on Thursday, July 27, at 8:00 a.m., and continues through the day on Sunday, June 30. See the full schedule here.
