Lexington, Ky.—May 20, 2026—The U.S. Hunter Jumper Association is pleased to welcome Frank & Eileen as the presenting sponsor of the USHJA Amateur Hunter Championships and a supporting sponsor of the USHJA Gladstone Cup Equitation Classic for Amateurs and Marshall+Sterling/USHJA 3’3” Adult Jumping Seat Medal. 

“We are pleased to welcome Frank & Eileen as the presenting sponsor of the USHJA Amateur Hunter Championships and a supporting sponsor of our Adult Equitation programs,” said USHJA Executive Director Whitney Allen. “Their commitment to excellence and community helps elevate these championships by providing a national platform that showcases our talented Amateur riders in competition, celebrates their achievements, and contributes to their long-term success within the sport.”

The USHJA Amateur Hunter Championships provide a bi-coastal, national competition designed for Amateur Hunter riders competing in the 2’6” Low Adult Amateur, 3’ Adult Amateur, 3’3” Amateur Owner, and 3’6” Amateur Owner divisions. The Championships bring together qualified riders from across the country to compete in a multi-phase format that includes Under Saddle, Classic Round, and Handy Round classes. 

The USHJA Gladstone Cup Equitation Classic for Amateurs is a three-round competition that combines the precision of Equitation with the handiness of Hunters over a 3’ course. Open to eligible Amateur riders who have achieved qualifying results in recognized Equitation classes, the class highlights both technical skill and adaptability in the saddle.

The Marshall+Sterling/USHJA 3’3” Adult Jumping Seat Medal offers Adult Amateur riders the opportunity to demonstrate their Equitation skills over a Jumper-style course, followed by a Flat Phase. Open to Adult Amateur competitors 18 and over meeting eligibility requirements, the Finals are held on both the East and West Coasts, allowing qualified riders to choose their preferred location to compete for this prestigious title.

"Frank & Eileen is incredibly proud to sponsor the USHJA Amateur Hunter and Equitation Championships," said Audrey McLoghlin, the Founder and CEO of Frank & Eileen. "As a brand born in Ireland and made in California, two places with deep equestrian roots, supporting the top riders of today and tomorrow is a privilege. These championships represent the best of the amateur hunter and equitation sport—we are so excited to support the determination, grit, and continued success of the athletes and horses involved."
