The All-Championship Team has been named after the National Collegiate Equestrian Association (NCEA) National Championship, announced Wednesday by the association.

To be eligible for the All-Championship Team, the riders must have competed in at least two meets and have a winning record. The Single and Dual Discipline Most Outstanding Performers are automatically added to the teams for each event. Coaches vote on the Team, but cannot vote on their own student-athletes. The Jumping Seat teams will have six athletes while the Western will have five.

About the NCEA
A non-profit corporation, the NCEA is a governing body to advance the sport of equestrian. The NCEA is responsible for the development and administration of equestrian rules and guidelines. Equestrian is subject to all NCAA policies and procedures in the same manner as other sports. In 1998, Equestrian was identified and adopted by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and the Committe of Women’s Athletics (CWA) as an emerging sport for women at the Division I and II levels. 

NCEA competitors are in a head-to-head format, and schools may choose to compete as a single or dual discipline team (Jumping Seat and Western). Each discipline has two events: in Jumping Seat, Fences and Flat, and in Western, Horsemanship and Reining. Teams can have five riders per event, with horses assigned by random draw at the start of the competition. Riders from opposing reams compete on the same horse, and whichever rider receives the higher score earns one point for her team. The level of difficulty is demonstrated by the accuracy of the pattern and how the competitor uses the hrose to the best of her ability.
