FEI World and European Vaulting Championships

Vaulting youth experienced a tough 2020, as they had to go through the year without a single event or championship. Having the possibility to showcase talent at this age is very important, just as it is to get a first feel for championship ambiance and pressure, at all levels. Due to Covid-19, the FEI Vaulting European Championships for Juniors in Flyinge (SWE) had to be cancelled.

Senior vaulters were also severely impacted. Not only did they see their dream of a medal at the FEI World Championship in Flyinge dissipate, the pandemic led to a cancellation of all events throughout the year since the Masterclass in Leipzig in January.
