Bermuda Secures Strong Scores At CEA RJC
The Bermuda round of the 2016 Caribbean Equestrian Association’s Regional Jumping Challenge [CEA RJC] was held yesterday [Oct 16] at the National Equestrian Centre, with the event judged by Judy Hagen of Bermuda.
Currently in its second year, the CEA RJC provides competitors of all ages an opportunity to measure their skills against riders within the Caribbean region. Riders compete in their own countries, over two rounds of a predetermined jumping course at heights of .70m, .85m or 1.00m.
The top two scores from each division form the country’s team.
Despite the challenges and disruption of having recently endured the wrath of Hurricane Nicole, Bermuda’s competitors rose to the occasion and secured very strong scores in all three-height divisions. The final country results and placing will be confirmed once Jamaica has completed its round of the competition.
