The International Jumping in Maubeuge (FRA) won't take place this year. The CSI3*, 1* and YH* was scheduled to take place 13 until 16 June. Valère Cogniot, the sportive director, announced the news.
"We notice that in this Olympic year, there is a very heavy pressure on the competition calendar," it sounds. "We see that between April and July, many CSI3* and CSI4* competitions are being organized. Simultaneously with ours, Knokke has again submitted its candidacy, and there is also the international competition in Roeser, 120km away from us. We do not want to compete with these organizations, especially since Lier and Opglabbeek also dominate the calendar in those weeks."
Because Belgian participants are an important target audience, it was decided to cancel the organization this year. "We will do the financial exercise and are normally motivated to be ready with our organization again in 2025."
