By the FEI President
On behalf of the Fédération Equestre Internationale, it is my pleasure to welcome you to Puebla for another exciting qualifier of the Longines FEI Jumping World CupTM North American League 2023/2024. Over the next few days, we are guaranteed to experience top-level sport as athletes and horses brave courses of highest standards, set up by some of the best course designers in the world.
Twelve leagues, including the North American League, make up the highly successful and global FEI World CupTM Jumping series which has been in existence since 1978. This year again, eight suspense-filled qualifiers, of which four count towards the overall standings, will be taking us from The USA to Canada and Mexico. Sacramento (USA) kick-started this new season and as our journey continued, we headed out to destinations such as Washington, D.C. (USA), Toronto (CAN), Las Vegas (USA) and will be headed to Ocala (USA), to name a few. At each leg, athletes will be aiming for precious FEI World CupTM points, which could qualify them for the prestigious Longines FEI Jumping World CupTM Final in Riyadh (KSA), 16-20 April 2024.
This new season will once again be filled with fantastic sports moments, brought to us through the unique bond between horses and rider; the trust, the communication, and the patience involved. It is this bond which enables impressive feats of athleticism to be achieved and the core around which the whole FEI community revolves.
I would like to thank Longines most sincerely for their invalu- able and ongoing support, which allows us to continuously set the bar for this series extremely high. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Francisco Pasquel and Carlos Hagenbeck and the entire event management teams, for the successful running of this event.
To the volunteer body and sponsors, as well as the athletes, the enthusiastic public, and the media representatives, thank you for your dedication and loyalty; this would not be possible without you! I wish the athletes the best of luck, and the fans that they have a wonderful time here in Puebla, conducted in the best spirit of great horsemanship.
