The FEI World Jumping Challenge is designed to enable riders who live in more remote countries the opportunity to compete internationally without having to leave their own country. Individual and team competitors are ranked by geographic region and by height categories. For 2016, the CIEF is hosting Category C which includes jump heights of up to 1.1 meters.

The third and final event of the Cayman leg of the FEI World Jumping Challenge is scheduled to take place on Saturday, April 9th at the Equestrian Center. Start time is 9:30am and admission is free.
