It is with deep regret, that the organizers of CSI Greenwich, in close consultation with the Brant family, Major League Show Jumping and FEI officials, have made the difficult decision to cancel the event due to unprecedented and ongoing rainfall in the region.
The Greenwich area has experienced 8 inches of rain accumulation leading to flooding in the week leading up to CSI Greenwich. With the additional rainfall yesterday and the further expected rain and flood watch presently in effect, the conditions on the ground will not be up to our standards to host a high level international competition with the safety and of horses and riders being at the forefront.
Going forward the Team at CSI Greenwich, The Brant Family, and Major League Show Jumping are committed to having a world-class venue and event here in Greenwich and will be investing in new infrastructure for venue including adding upgraded stabling and an all weather sand arena.
