World Equestrian Games,
Lexington, KY; September 25-October 10, 2010
The World Equestrian Games are comprised of the world championships
for eight equestrian sports. The Games are held every four years,
two years prior to the Olympic Games, and are governed by the
Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI).
The very first World Equestrian Games were held
in Stockholm in 1990. Six disciplines were involved--Jumping,
Dressage, Eventing, Driving, Endurance and Vaulting. In 1994 the
city of The Hague in the Netherlands hosted the Games. After a late
cancellation of the Games that were to be held in Dublin, Ireland,
Rome stepped forward to host the 1998 Games on one year's notice.
All disciplines except the Endurance were held and beautifully
executed considering the very short preparation time. The Endurance
was held in Dubai that year. The next Games were held in Jerez de
Frontera, Spain in 2002 and included all six disciplines and Reining
for the first time. Following that the Games went to Aachen
2006, again with seven disciplines, and were a fabulous success. In
2010 the games leave Europe for the first time and come to the
United States to the Kentucky Horse Park where, for the first time,
Para Dressage, the newest FEI Discipline will be competed together
with the other seven.
