No driving competition in Pau this year

The organization of the CAIO4* competition for single driving in Pau, France, is not organizing a driving competition this year. The organization has announced this to Hoefnet. In 2021, 22 participants traveled to the South of France for the CAIO in Pau.

“Last year and the year before, we contacted the drivers to see if they were interested in participating in our driving competition. Last year we received too few positive reactions, after which we decided to organize the Crazy Cup.” This new set-up was similar to the format of the indoor World Cup competitions for the Four-in-Hand horses.

This year, the organization contacted the drivers again, but again did not get enough positive responses to organize a CAI or Crazy Cup competition. “We had a few helpful people who wanted to think along and we are very grateful to them, but unfortunately the numbers were too small to invest in organizing a driving competition. We have therefore decided to organize a horseball competition this year, a new program element for our visitors.”
