The 2025 FEI Jumping World Challenge will take place in three series.After two series in Arthayasa, Depok, the third series will be held in Pulomas next week.
In series 1 which took place on Friday (7/11), Dinov was able to become the best in two sessions by outperforming Girls and Teuku Rifat.Dinov was declared first place thanks to his superior time of 53.53 seconds compared to 55.51 seconds.
Then in series 2 which took place on Sunday (9/11), it was Girl’s turn to beat Dinov.Girls’ total penalties were only four, while Dinov received eight penalties in two rounds.
This result means the girls have a big chance of qualifying for the final round of the FEI Jumping World Challenge 2025. However, everything will still be determined through competition in series 3 and comparison with results in other Asian countries such as India, Singapore, Thailand and Malaysia.
The World Jumping Challenge is an event for the FEI (International Equestrian Federation) to develop equestrian sports in developing countries.The qualifying rounds were held in ten different zones.
FEI issued a track design consisting of dozens of obstacles that participants had to overcome.This design is used in all zones which each hold qualifying rounds.Indonesia is part of zone 9 which consists of Singapore, Thailand, India, Malavsia and Indonesia.The two best athletes from each zone will qualify for next year’s finals.
Series 1 and 2 of the FEI Jumping World Challenge 2025 are a warm-up for young Indonesian equestrian athletes before facing the decisive race in series 3 next week.Series 3 will also be a selection for the 2026 Youth Olympics.
“The 2025 FEI Jumping World Challenge will also be a qualifier for the 2026 Youth Olympic Games [YOG] in Senegal. Hopefully they will qualify for YOG. If they get there [series III] through with at most two mistakes from two rounds then they will qualify.”
“Hopefully, God willing, we will pass. The four of them will be fighting over who passes. One or two will pass depending on the FEI,” said Rafiq Radinal, who is the Chair of the PP Pordasi Equestrian Commission.
The girl who is temporarily ahead after two series runs is confident that she will be able to qualify for the 2026 Youth Olympic Qualification.
“I will try my best. I am very happy that Indonesia has this opportunity. I really hope to be a winner. After seeing the Asian Youth Games, I think I have a chance,” said Girl.
Series 1 and 2 of the FEI Jumping World Challenge 2025 also compete in the 130 cm class, 50-60 cm class, 70 cm, 80-90 cm, 110-110 cm and 120 cm.
