The FEI Jumping World Challenge enables local riders an opportunity to compete in an international arena setting without having to travel overseas. Riders from 10 different geographical zones compete over the same jumping courses designed by an FEI appointed course designer. Rakshan Radpour of Iran designed this year’s course.

The Challenge provides for Individual & Team rankings per Country, per Region and for the World in each of the three jumping categories. Only the results of the best two of the three competitions per category count towards the final rankings.
