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.
Qualification criteria for the World Equestrian Games for Canada should
be available from Equine Canada shortly.
