  • 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.

  • 2016 Brittish Riding Pony Breed Standards and Showing Rules
    2016 Brittish Riding Pony Breed Standards and Showing Rules Secretary: Mrs Alicia M Hay Blairview, By Milnathort, KY13 0SF 07970 816416 www.npsscotland.co.uk BRITISH RIDING PONY BREED DESCRIPTION The British Riding Pony is a breed, established over a hundred years ago, originally by the Polo Pony Stud Book Society in 1893. However, 20 years later it became the National Pony Society and to this day it is the custodian of the Stud Book. The Stud Book was formed to encourage the breeding, registration and improvement of both Riding Ponies and at that time all the native breds too, though they now have their own stud books. The foundation blood lines of all the British Riding Ponies were Polo Ponies, Thoroughbreds, Arabs and the British Native Breeds (mostly Welsh or Dartmoor). An increasing number of the ponies now being registered with the NPS are the progeny of British Riding Pony sires and dams and through many generations of selective breeding a very high standard has been achieved. British Riding Ponies are of three categories or types – Show Ponies, Show Hunter Ponies and Sports/Competition Ponies. The Sports Ponies result from cross breeding with Sport Horses or Ponies. All types have outstanding quality while retaining the pony characteristics of good temperament, hardiness, soundness and surefootedness. They provide an ideal mount for today’s competitive riders and are successful in a wide variety of equine competitions and disciplines. The British Riding Pony is much respected and sought after world wide and some of the best blood lines have been exported, predominantly to Australia, New Zealand and America.

  • Horsesense Learning Levels
    HorseSense Learning Levels A Progression of Horsemanship Skills All riding requirements must be met with the student demonstrating a safe, basic balanced position: heels down, eyes up, quiet hands, and a line running from the head through the shoulder and hip to the heel. RISING RIDER LEVEL – RAINBOW The Rainbow Level is an introductory level for young riders aged 4 through 7, who are not yet able to ride and care for a pony independently. Rainbow Level riders should always practice their skills with the supervision and assistance of an instructor! I take regular lessons - at least once a month - with a knowledgeable instructor. I always wear boots and an ASTM-SEI approved helmet when I am working around horses. I can put on my helmet myself and show you how it fits correctly. I can tell you how to dress safely for riding. I can show you how to correctly approach a pony, and how to move around a pony safely - including walking around behind. I can tell you why you have to groom a pony and pick out his feet before every ride. I can help my instructor or an older, more experienced rider prepare for a ride. I help with the grooming, cleaning hooves, and putting on the saddle and bridle. When I am a little bit bigger, I will be able to tack up a pony without any help. I can show you the basic parts of a saddle and bridle, such as the bit, reins, stirrups and girth. I can lead a pony safely, both with a halter and lead rope and with the bridle reins.
