United States Equestrian Team Foundation 2018 ANNUAL REPORT

Photo by Shannon Brinkman Message from the President

Dear Friends, In reviewing the accomplishments of our United States teams in 2018, I was in awe of the talent, competitive spirit and patriotism of our athletes and teams. Not only did the United States have its best World Equestrian Games in history, winning 12 medals - 3 Gold, 5 Silver and 4 Bronze - there were many personal bests illustrating the progression along the pathway, and podium finishes within reach for many more. There is much to celebrate and look forward to from all eight disciplines in the coming year. There were over 250 athletes involved in US Equestrian’s emerging, development and elite high performance programs who benefited from the generous support you provided this year. Additionally, your contributions and commitment to our teams make it possible to assemble the most skilled and professional veterinarians, farriers, physiotherapists, team managers and grooms, the “team behind the team”, allowing the athletes to remain focused on their job which is critical to their success, thank you. The extraordinary generosity of the USET Foundation’s closest friends, supporters and stakeholders has accelerated advancement for our United States Equestrian Teams. This has allowed US Equestrian to increase support for high performance athletes and expand development programs, strengthening the pipeline of talented and experienced riders, drivers and vaulters for future championships. Ensuring the future means affording elite and developing athletes the opportunity and financial resources to train and compete globally throughout the quadrennial. We extend our steadfast gratitude to you, our friends and supporters who love the sport and are helping our athletes and teams achieve greatness on the world stage. GO USA!

Sincerely,

W. James McNerney, Jr. President and CEO
