Show jumping's first occurrence within an arena was in Dublin in 1869, though France held groups which would jump cross-country. Show jumping started because of the Enclosure Acts, which allowed Commissioners to fence off land as they saw fit, causing hunting on horses to suddenly require fence-jumping.
