The Longines EEF Series is back for its third consecutive edition and heading to Peelbergen Equestrian Centre from the 18th till the 21st of May for the Region West Qualifier.
The series kicked off in April in Gorla Minore, home of the 2022 winning team, with France clinching the gold medal and Bulgaria bagging the Region South Qualifier’s points.
The excitement then shifted to Mannheim, where the Dutch team secured well-deserved qualifying points with an outstanding performance that made last week's headlines.
Now, all eyes are set on the third appointment at Peelbergen Equestrian Centre, with the Dutch team aiming to secure a back-to-back victory in front of their home crowd.
The Longines EEF Series Peelbergen is free and open to the public, fans are encouraged to come out and support their teams, and Friday’s Nations Cup, in particular, is not to be missed!
Moreover, the Longines EEF Nations Cup Peelbergen is not only open to West Region teams competing for qualification but also to invited teams from around the world, turning it into a truly international event that showcases the best of equestrian sport on a global scale.
Managing director Ken Ruysen is looking forward to seeing the series unfold and hosting the Longines EEF Series again in Peelbergen.
"We are thrilled that Peelbergen has once again been selected as the location for the Region West Longines EEF Series Regional Qualifier, and we are ready to put on an unforgettable show for all attendees.”
