  • Physiological Demands of Eventing and Performance Related Fitness in Female Horse Riders
    Physiological Demands of Eventing and Performance Related Fitness in Female Horse Riders J. Douglas A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the University’s requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2017 University of Worcester ! DECLARATION I declare that this thesis is a presentation of my own original research work and all the written work and investigations are entirely my own. Wherever contributions of others are involved, this is clearly acknowledged and referenced. I declare that no portion of the work referred to in this thesis has been submitted for another degree or qualification of any comparable award at this or any other university or other institution of learning. Signed: Date: I ! ABSTRACT Introduction: Scientific investigations to determine physiological demands and performance characteristics in sports are integral and necessary to identify general fitness, to monitor training progress, and for the development, prescription and execution of successful training interventions. To date, there is minimal evidence based research considering the physiological demands and physical characteristics required for the equestrian sport of Eventing. Therefore, the overarching aim of this thesis was to investigate the physiological demands of Eventing and performance related fitness in female riders. Method: The primary aim was achieved upon completion of three empirical studies. Chapter Three: Anthropometric and physical fitness characteristics and training and competition practices of Novice, Intermediate and Advanced level female Event riders were assessed in a laboratory based physical fitness test battery. Chapter Four: The physiological demands and physical characteristics of Novice level female event riders throughout the three phases of Novice level one-day Eventing (ODE) were assessed in a competitive Eventing environment.

  • British Horseracing Authority – Written Evidence (GAM0065)
    British Horseracing Authority – Written evidence (GAM0065) Introduction 1. The British Horseracing Authority (BHA) – the governing and regulatory body for thoroughbred horseracing in Great Britain – is delighted to respond to the House of Lords Select Committee Inquiry on the Social and Economic Impact of the Gambling industry. This response is being submitted by the BHA on behalf of the wider British racing industry incorporating our racecourses, licenced personnel (including trainers, jockeys and owners) and media rights holders. 2. British racing is the UK’s second largest sport behind football in respect of attendances, employment and revenues generated annually. In 2018, 5.77 million people attended over 1,500 individual race meetings held across England, Scotland and Wales. Our largest events are not only highlights in the increasingly competitive international racing calendar, but also the UK sporting and social calendar. British racing’s cultural significance is demonstrated by the fact that ours is the only sport which has two annual nationwide events – the Grand National and the Derby – which are included on the Group A list of full live coverage protected events for FTA broadcast. 3. This translates into a significant economic benefit for the UK, with our industry generating £3.45 billion in direct, indirect and associated expenditure annually for the British economy. Much of this is focused in rural areas with over 20,000 people employed across our 59 licensed racecourses, hundreds of training yards and thousands of breeding operations – all of which play a key role in the life of the many hundreds of rural communities they operate in.

  • Coaching Courses Frequently Asked Questions
    Coaching courses Frequently Asked Questions What do I need to have before I start on an Equestrian coaching pathway? We would recommend any prospective equestrian coach gain significant experience and engage in recognised certificated programmes to give the basics in horse care and management. There are a range of options for this, including the Pony Club tests, BHS Care and Lunge components of the Grooms pathway, ABRS range of tests, rosettes and awards, WBD / SVQ / City and Guilds qualifications in Horse care (e.g. City and Guilds qualification) ; racing industry qualifications (see here) available through colleges and other education providers. These courses and tests will give the grounding in horse care and safety to ensure you can assure the coaching practices you develop through the pathway are as safe as they can be, looking after the welfare of the horse as well as the participant. What are the differences between the British Horse Society (BHS) qualifications and Equestrian Coaching Certificate pathway endorsed by UK Coaching Certificate (UKCC)? The BHS pathway provides a rounded programme of assessment encompassing riding, horse care and management along with teaching and training practices. This pathway is assessment only and has no taught element delivered directly by the BHS Head Office although BHS Approved Riding Centres and Accredited Professional Coaches do offer training. You can therefore choose your own method of learning, whether that be from text books, practical experience or class-based learning. BHS would actively encourage you to gain as much practical experience as you can while progressing through the stages combined with text books and taught courses which are available via colleges, at equestrian centres and are offered by freelance coaches.

    P ARK HOUSE STABLES SUMMER MAGAZINE 2019 INTRODUCTION P ARK HOUSE STABLES orse racing has always been unpredictable and in many ways that is part of its attraction. It can provide fantastic high H points but then have the opposite effect on one’s emotions a moment later. Saturday 13 July was one of those days. Having enjoyed the thrill of watching Pivoine win one of the season’s most important handicaps, closely followed by Beat The Bank battling back to win a second Summer Mile, the ecstasy of victory was replaced in a split second by a feeling of total horror with Beat The Bank suffering what could immediately be seen to be an awful injury. Whilst winning races is important to everyone at Kingsclere, the vast majority of people who work in racing do it because they love horses and there is nothing more cruel in this sport than losing a horse, whether it be on the gallops or on the racecourse. Beat The Above: Ernie (Meg Armes) is judged Best Puppy at the Kingsclere Dog Show Bank was a wonderful racehorse and a great character and will be remembered with huge affection by everyone at Park House.
