FEI President clarifies Federation’s position remains unchanged on GCL
- 3 December 2015, 15:35
THE FEI President Ingmar De Vos has today (Thursday) again confirmed that the FEI’s position on the Global Champions League (GCL) remains unchanged and that the Federation will continue to fight the decision of the Belgian Competition Authority (BCA) with all legal means.
“The GCL is still an unsanctioned event which is not approved by the FEI and we are still seeking a full annulment of the decision”, Ingmar De Vos said.
“As the international governing body, we of course have to respect the decision of the Court and have complied with the BCA ruling to publish a statement declaring that, as an interim measure, athletes and horses competing in the GCL events will not be sanctioned. But I want to make it absolutely clear, these are only interim measures which we will continue to fight and that no decision has yet been taken on the merits of the case.
