FEI Jumping World Challenge On Nov 21
The Bermuda Equestrian Federation said that Competition #3 of the 2020 FEI Jumping World Challenge will take place on Saturday, November 21st at the National Equestrian Centre.
A spokesperson said, “The Challenge comprises of three separate competitions. Competitions 1 and 2 of the Bermuda rounds were successfully held in February 2020. However, due to the global pandemic, Competition 3 was forced to be postponed.
“An overseas FEI Judge as well, as a local FEI Judge, is required to adjudicate the third and final competition. However, due to travel restrictions, the FEI has authorized this event to be judged solely by Bermuda’s own Judith Hagen; a FEI Level 3 Jumper Judge.
“The FEI Jumping Challenge is indeed a highlight on Bermuda’s equestrian calendar. The challenge provides an opportunity for local riders to compete in an international competition without the need to travel overseas.
“Riders from around the world, compete over identical jumping course designed by an FEI appointed Course designer. This year’s jumping course were designed FEI level 3 Course Designer Christoph Johnen of Germany.”
