After extensive discussions and negotiations between the IOC, the FEI, and National Federations the final criteria for deciding country eligibility has not yet been finalised, and we await confirmation from the FEI.

However the one thing that is certain is that any potential candidate for selection and consideration for the Youth Olympic Games 2010 must obtain a Certificate of Capability by completing the first round of the Category A of the World Jumping Challenge with no more that eight jumping penalties. This means that any Bermuda rider born in 1992 or 1993 who wishes to be considered for the Youth Olympic Games must enter the FEI competition which has been scheduled for Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th February 2010 at the National Equestrian Centre.

Overall individual results will count towards the final selection
