2010 German Dressage Championships Move to Munster

December 23, 2009

The 2010 German Dressage Championships will not be hosted in Balve but in Munster. Due to the 2010 World Soccer Championships in South Africa, the Balve organisation could not secure enough tv-airing time and was forced to cancel the German Championships.

The Munster Turnier der Sieger organisation came to the rescue and took over the event, which will now take place two months later than scheduled. The German nationals will be hosted from 12 through 15 August 2010.

Balve organizer Dieter Graf Landsberg-Velen could not guarantee proper airing time on television which made companies unfortunately annul or decrease their sponsorship of the Balve event.
