Will Strzegom in 2017 be lucky again for Ludwig Svennerstal, winner of the 2016 CICO3* individual title?
Strzegom 2017 is not only all about the FEI European Championships in Eventing- there are also three other international events which have taken place there for years – the Strzegom Horse Trials, Strzegom Autumn Show and Strzegom October Festival
Strzegom Horse Trials
To fit in with the timing of the European Championships, Strzegom Horse Trials, the event with the longest tradition of all Strzegom’s competitions, will this year take place from 17th- 20th May 2017 and will be the 15th year that it is taking place. It is always a popular venue for international riders and this year it will be one of the last chances for them to qualify for the European Championships in August. It will also be the last chance, for those who already have qualification, to take part and ‘get the feeling’ of Strzegom’s cross country course.
Strzegom Horse Trials is not only a 3* CCI and CICO Nations Cup event, but also CIC/CCI2* and CIC/CCI1* competitions for less experienced riders and horses, who are just at the beginning of their international career.
European Championships
There are now less than 200 days until the European Senior Eventing Championships in 2017. Those planning to attend should hop online to the event website for ticket, hospitality and travel arrangements www.Strzegom2017.pl
Strzegom Autumn Show
Once the Europeans are over, there is still plenty to do. Every September in Strzegom there are special competitions organized for young 4, 5 and 6 years old horses along with 1* and 2 * international classes and this year a CNC L and CNC P will be added. Strzegom Autumn Show has been a venue for many talented young horses for last few years and this year takes place from the 14th until 17th September 2017
Strzegom October Festival
In October, it’s time to sum up and finish the eventing season in Strzegom. The Strzegom October Festival, which takes place from 12th till 15th October 2017 includes CNC L, P, 1*, CCI1*, CIC/CCI2*, and CIC/CCI3* classes. This event is growing in popularity each year as it offers a range of cross country courses at varying levels of difficulty, allowing riders to finish the season on a good note for the coming season or start at a higher level in preparation for the coming season
