      Fei world dressage challenge

      The Competition

      The aim of this Competition is to give the less experienced Jumping riders who, under normal circumstances, cannot take part in international Jumping competitions and live in the more remote countries, the opportunity to compete internationally without having to leave their own country.

      The Competition is currently divided into twelve geographical Zones, made up of between four and six countries. It offers five performance levels and two age groups (12-15 yrs; 16 yrs and older):
      •  Prix St. George
      •  Advanced
      •  Medium
      •  Elementary
      •  Preliminary
       
      Individual Classification:
      The FEI World Dressage Challenge offers an Individual classification per geographical Zone, per Level and per age group. They based on the results obtained by each rider throughout the competition.
       
      Team Classification:
      The FEI World Dressage Challenge offers a Team classification per geographical Zone, based on the highest total percentage obtained by the 3 best riders of a NF’s Team. A team is composed of a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 4 Riders designated by the NF. It is of no importance whether all team members participate in the same level or whether they compete in different levels.
       
      In All Fairness:
      The riders of the FEI World Dressage Challenge are judged on the same tests and by the same Ground Jury within each geographical Zone.
       
      Development of the Sport
      The FEI World Dressage Challenge also serves an as educational purpose by linking the competition with the coaching. The Dressage tests are in correlation with the Levels 1, 2 (and soon Level 3) of the FEI Coach Education System, which is implemented in the same NFs that participate to the FEI World Dressage Challenge
       
      Therefore, in addition to the competition itself, the Ground Jury also offers to competitors practical and theoretical instructions during a training course (Clinic) following the event.
       
      The FEI World Dressage Challenge is held between the 1st January and the 31st  December
