The sport of carriage driving is so small we need to do all we can to encourage competition

Definitely three more qualified drivers should be allowed. Why wouldn’t they be allowed?

Send three more. Those of us who carriage drive look to them as roll models

Traditions are important, especially in these uncertain times. Please allow the host country to have it usual numbers...

Please allow additional driving teams- the driving discipline requires so much time, money, and commitment from teams, that allowing additional teams would greatly reward those participating. The selection is currently so small that works class teams are turned away which hurts the sport. The non Olympic WEG disciplines need MORE exposure- not less. I am a Dressage Rider, not a driver, but I LOVE watching combined driving and the WEG is one of the few chances to see it on the world stage. I would prefer additional teams from all countries capable of qualifying teams, but I guess 3 additional for the host country is a start.

Please allow the drivers who have qualified from the host country to be able to compete. We need to encourage our 4-in-hand drivers.

Please allow host countries to enter 6 individuals to the World Equestrian Games. I think it will add to the prestige and increase exposure to our equestrian sports.

The more exposure the better. As a volunteer, I'm willing to spend more time at the event

I am Chef d' Equipe from Czech Republic. I see as very good to add for more drivers from USA. We will be glad to compete with more than 15 competitors in the WEG. We want bigger competition...

Please continue the tradition of allowing the host country the option to enter up to 6 qualified individuals in addition to the 3 member team.

Hopefully we would have enough qualified drivers to show the world that we are equal to challenge the best.

With the increasing costs involved, and with fewer venues being able to host Advanced Level Combined Driving Events, it is essential that the current four-in-hand drivers have every opportunity to compete and hone their skills. The option for the host country to be able to allow more incipient WEG competitors in Driving is extremely important. These Drivers should be encouraged to, not prevented from, participating in the World Equestrian Games Driving Competition!!

Being the host country is an honor. This discipline is barely represented in the USA, what a great venue to support our dedicated drivers.
