Longines - official timekeeper

Longines has been based at Saint-Imier (SUI) since 1832. Its watchmaking expertise reflects a strong devotion to Elegance, Tradition and Performance.

It has generations of experience as the official timekeeper at world championships and as a partner of international sports federations.

Longines’ passion for equestrian sports began in 1878, when a timepiece was made with a horse and jockey engraved on the watch face. Over the years, the brand has built strong and long-lasting links with equestrian sports. In 1912, for the first time, the brand was involved as timekeeper for a event in Portugal.

Today, Longines’ involvement in equestrian sports includes jumping, endurance and flat racing. Longines is a member of The Swatch Group S.A., the world’s leading manufacturer of horological products.

Longines is celebrating its 186th anniversary this year. With an excellent reputation for creating refined timepieces, the brand, whose emblem is the winged hourglass, has outlets in over 150 countries. www.longines.com

Format

1st competition: Speed Competition 2nd competition: Team (Rounds 1 & 2 over two days) 3rd competition: Individual (Rounds A & B)

1st competition: Speed Competition Drawn Order • Open to individuals and teams • Table C (Faults under Table C are penalised in seconds which are added to the time taken to complete the round)

Penalties: The scores obtained by each competitor will be converted into Championship points by multiplying the time of each competitor by the coefficient 0.50. The competitor with the lowest number of points after this conversion will be given zero penalties. The other competitors will be credited with the number of penalties representing the difference in points between each of them and the leading competitor.

If a competitor is eliminated or does not complete their round for any reason, they will be penalised with 20 penalties more than the last-placed competitor who completed the competition. The addition of 20 penalties is done after each athlete’s time has been converted into penalties.

2nd competition: Team (2 Rounds) This competition is open only to the athletes and horses who took part in the 1st competition: Table A - two different rounds, not against the clock.

Round 1 Starting Order:

Individuals First to start in Round 1 of the team competition are all individuals. The starting order is according to the reverse order of individual classification in the 1st competition (Speed Competition). In case of equality of penalties for any place, competitors retain the same starting place as in the first competition.

Teams Following the 1st individual competition, teams are divided into two groups based on the results of the best three competitors in each team. The first group of teams to start in Round 1 of the team competition will be teams placed 11th and below. The group with teams placed first to 10th and those tied for 10th place start last. Teams in each group start in reverse order of classification resulting from the 1st individual competition. There is a draw to decide the starting order for teams in case of equality of penalties.

Round 2 Starting Order:

This competition is open to the 50 athletes (which may be increased if there is equality for 50th place) and the 10 best placed teams and those teams equal on penalties for 10th place after round 1 of the Team Competition: Table A – Different from Round 1, not against the clock.

Individuals The starting order of the individuals qualified to compete in Round 2 of the 2nd competition is set according to the reverse order of the aggregate penalties incurred in the 1st individual competition, and the first round of the second individual competition. In the case of competitors with equality of penalties, the score of the first competition will decide their starting order.

Teams The starting order of the teams qualified to compete is set according to the reverse order of total penalties of the best three competitors per team incurred in the 1st individual competition and the best three competitors per team in the first round of the team competition. Teams with equality of penalties retain the starting order of the first round.

Classification - Team Placing: The top 10 teams and those with equality of penalties for 10th place receive their placing by adding the penalties incurred by the best three competitors in each team in the 1st competition and the penalties incurred by the three best competitors in each of the two Rounds of the 2nd competition. The team which has obtained the least number of penalties will be placed first and declared FEI European Team Champions.

In the event of equality of penalties between teams for first, second and/or third place, there will be a jump-off against the clock in which all team competitors may take part.

The score in this jump-off is obtained by adding the penalties incurred by the three best competitors in each team, but in the event of further equality of penalties, the times of these three competitors in the jump-off added together will decide the winning team as well as those placed second or third. The score of this jump-off is only to determine the placing of the teams and will not count towards the final scores of the individual competitors.

If two jump-offs are required, the jump-off for third place will precede the jump-off for first and the second place. If, after the jump-off, there is equality of penalties and time for one of the first three places, the teams concerned will be placed equal.

Teams not qualified for Round 2 of the team competition receive their placing by adding the penalties incurred by the three best competitors in each team in the first competition and the penalties incurred by the three competitors in Round 1 of the team competition.

3rd competition: Individual (Rounds A & B): This 3rd competition is open to the 25 best-placed competitors and horses (including those with equality of penalties for 25th place): Table A – two different rounds (A and B), not against the clock with a time allowed.

Starting Order:

Round A The starting order for Round A will follow the reverse order of penalties incurred in the first and second competitions, i.e. the 25th qualified will start as number one.

Round B Round B of the third competition is open to the 12 best placed competitors and horses according to the cumulative penalties over the 1st and 2nd Competitions and Round A of the 3rd Competition. In case of competitors with equality of penalties for 12th place, the result in Round A of the third competition will be the deciding factor. In case of further equality of penalties, the time of Round A will be used to break the tie.

The starting order for Round B will follow the reverse order of total penalties incurred in Round A, as well as in the 1st and 2nd competitions. The competitor with the most penalties will start first; the competitor with the least penalties will start last.

Classification - Individual Placing: The individual placing is determined by adding together for each competitor the penalties incurred in the 1st competition, as well as Rounds 1 and 2 of the 2nd competition (disregarding the penalties incurred in the jump-off if there is one) and Rounds A and B of the 3rd competition. The competitor with the least penalties will be placed first and declared the FEI European Champion.

In the event of equality for one of the first three places after Round B of the 3rd competition, there will be a jump-off against the clock. If two jump-offs are required, the jump-off for third place will precede the jump-off for first and second place. If after the jump-off there is equality of penalties and time for one of the first three places, competitors concerned will be placed equal.

History FEI Jumping European Championships

The history of the FEI Jumping European Championships began in (NED) in 1957 for men, with a separate “Ladies Championship” in Spa (BEL) for women, even though they already competed side by side at . The male/female division continued until 1973, well after Dressage and had combined the events.

Created following a change to the World Championship format, namely to only hold World Championships every four years with European Championships in between, the first edition was disappointing, with just eight athletes participating in Rotterdam and nine in Spa. The main concern was the change of horse final, a format previously also used at World Championships, but quickly discontinued for the Europeans. By the next edition in 1958, 24 athletes participated in the men’s and 13 in the women’s Championship.

As of 1975, the male and female Championships were united and participation increased steadily, but it was not until Hickstead (GBR) and 1999 that a woman took the individual title, ’s Alexandra Ledermann riding Rochet M.

Firsts: • The first Jumping European Championships were held in 1957 in Rotterdam (NED). • In the first edition eight athletes took part. • Individual gold went to Hans Günter Winkler (GER) and Halla.

Defending Champions from 2019: - Defending Champions: Martin Fuchs (SUI) and Clooney 51 - Defending Team Champions:
