Nations Cup showjumping
Nations Cup showjumping is the term used for a team showjumping event, in which teams of three or four riders from a single nation each jump two rounds of fences, with the best three performances in each round counting towards the result.
The current official FEI Nations Cup series is called the Longines League of Nations. Launched in 2024, this series currently involves four qualifying shows, in which the top 10 teams based on FEI rankings are invited to take part. The final is held Barcelona in October. Britain won the 2025 Longines League of Nations title.
Some major shows hold their own independent Nations Cup showjumping competitions, including Dublin Horse Show, Hickstead, Spruce Meadows and Aachen.
