Yet another leg of the Longines FEI Jumping World Cup™ 2020/2021 has been cancelled, this time Split Rock Jumping Tour's new CSI4*-W Fort Worth International, supposed to run from 16 to 20 December. The show was supposed to have been one of eight events in the Longines FEI Jumping World Cup™ Series' North American League, and the cancellation is the second in this league. Fort Worth International CSI4*-W will return with a full schedule in 2021.
“We made every effort to find a way to hold the event this year in a way that would be safe for everyone,” said Split Rock Jumping Tour (SRJT) Founder and CEO Derek Braun in a press release issued today. “We have held numerous discussions with the FEI and the USEF but unfortunately, hosting an event of this caliber indoors under the current circumstances presents too many challenges. After investigating every possibility, we came to the realization that it really makes the most sense to postpone our plans till next year when we will be able to put this event on in the spectacular way we have planned.”
