Ottawa, ON, July 3, 2024 – Equestrian Canada (EC) is pleased to officially announce the talented young dressage athletes that will represent Canada at the 2024 FEI North American Youth Championships (NAYC) in Traverse City, MI from Jul. 30 - Aug. 4, 2024.

NAYC brings together top dressage athletes aged 12 to 21 years from Canada, the United States, Mexico and the Caribbean for the chance to compete for team and individual medals. For the fourth consecutive year, the Championships will be held at the Great Lakes Equestrian Festival at Flintfields Horse Park.

The Championship allows youth to compete against their peers in a format similar to the Olympic games and other international senior championships. Canadian dressage athletes will compete in the juniors (14-18), young riders (16-21) and U25 divisions.

The dressage team will be supported by Chef d’Équipe, Jillian Taylor-Mancusi.

Canada is heading into NAYC 2024 after a strong showing last year where the U25 athletes captured team gold and Claire Robinson and Glamour Boy won gold in the inaugural U25 Grand Prix Freestyle Championship.

“Canada is rich with up-and-coming talent in the sport of dressage,” shared Taylor-Mancusi. “This is evident by the group of athletes representing the Maple Leaf at this year’s NAYC. We have a strong group of veterans to lead the way and show the ropes to our rookies! NAYC is the perfect venue to give our youth a taste of representing their country on the international stage.”

The Canadian NAYC Dressage Teams are proudly supported by Leveza, LC Taylor, Mad Barn, Ride Every Stride, Nexolia, Mango's Magic Creations, and the Government of Canada.

For schedules and more information on NAYC 2024, visit here. Live streaming information will be available here.

Canada will be represented at NAYC 2024 by the following athletes:

Soleil is a stunning Appaloosa gelding born in 2011. This fun and sweet horse has been successfully competed in Third Level dressage and schooled to Prix St. George level. In 2024, he took his junior rider from competing at her first Gold dressage competition to winning First Level championships, scoring in the the seventies. Soleil is coming off of a lease in September and will be available for in-barn lease or sale. This talented gelding is perfect for riders looking to advance in dressage, offering both an enjoyable and rewarding partnership
Soleil is also good over fences

Queenswood riders!!
"What I love most about Saturday evenings is getting all of my tack cleaned before a show" - said no-one EVER!
Well, we have a great solution - why not sit home and relax on Saturday knowing that your tack is being cleaned FOR YOU!
As part of Charlotte and Kiara’s fundraising for them to attend the FEI North American Youth Championships in Traverse City Michigan this summer, a tack cleaning fundraiser will be taking place on Saturday at Queenswood Stables, the day before our April Show!
All you have to do is sign-up below and indicate the pony/horse’s tack that you need cleaned. Then, our team will make sure your tack is squeeky clean and ready for the show! You can also email [email protected] to sign up!
In lieu of charging for this, we are accepting donations which can be dropped off at the barn anytime or on Sunday at the show. Please place donations in an envelope or bag clearly marked with your name.
If you are not showing on Sunday but you would like your tack cleaned, please sign up also!
If tack cleaning is not your thing, Charlotte and I will also be having a bake sale during the show with all proceeds going towards sending a Canadian team to the North American Youth Championships! Feel free to check it out and make a donation! Thank you!!🇨🇦
