Please welcome additional, qualified, US drivers to WEG in keeping with prior years' tradition. Most of our developing drivers cannot afford to train in Europe. They need to be allowed to compete when world-class events are hosted in the US.
Given the cost constraints for international travel and the mandate to promote equine events at the upcoming WEG, it only seems reasonable to let additional host country competitors enter the event. This raises the interest level of spectators and competitors alike.
We are a 501c3 equine conservation group with 50+++ rare breed affiliate organizations. We think it is important to continue the tradition of allowing the host country to have 6 qualified competitors.
I recall many new fans to combined driving were created at the Alltech World Equestrian Games 2010. With other disciplines sold out spectators discovered the sport of combined driving. Having many entries to watch on marathon day made the effort much more meaningful.
We need the extra competitors for many reasons. Firstly as the WEG is being held here in the USA we will already be down on numbers as many Europeans can not of ford to make the trip. I also believe we have strong competitive drivers this time around.
I am in support of the host country to have up to 6 qualified individual competitors in addition to its 3 member team.
Please allow three more drivers from the USA to participate in the WEG.

It is very important for the driving sport to have more individual host country drivers be able to compete. More drivers = more spectators, and eventually more new drivers getting enthousiast for the driving sport.
