FEI Solidarity FEI Insight March 2013 Shaping Tomorrow FEI Solidarity Here is the Challenge! – Page 30 FEI Insight FEI Sports Forum – Page 38 Editorial Note from the FEI President HRH Princess Haya Dear Focus readers, Last year’s inaugural FEI Sports Forum modernised our decision-making process by inviting you all to play a role. On the agenda was the remodelling of the FEI Nations Cup™ Jumping series and, thanks to the Saudi Equestrian Fund, February saw the restructured series take off in Al Ain under the name Furusiyya FEI Nations Cup™ Jumping. April’s FEI Sports Forum will be equally construc- tive. Proposals for Jumping, Dressage and Driving rule changes will be discussed, as well as Olympic Games and Paralympics qualification. Also on the agenda are the international movement of compe- tition horses and “dual career” – two topics you can read about in this edition of FEI Focus. Other subjects in this magazine include an update on the British Equestrian Federation’s Olympic legacy programme, the importance of keeping in shape to ride, and an FEI Solidarity-supported project for multiple sclerosis sufferers in Sardinia that combines riding therapy, competition training and research. February’s FEI World Cup™ Driving Final in Bordeaux (shown in images in this Focus) were followed by the FEI World Cup™ Vaulting Final in Braunschweig (GER). April will see the HSBC FEI Classics™ series resume in the USA, while Gothenburg (SWE) will host the exciting Rolex FEI World Cup Jumping™ and Reem Acra World Cup™ Dressage Finals. Our sport is in good shape and there are many fabulous events on our calendar. Enjoy them.

FEI TO SHOWCASE OUR SPORT IN RUSSIA SportAccord, the umbrella organisation for all international sports federations, organisers of multi-sport games and sports-related international associations, is holding its annual international convention in St Petersburg from 26 to 31 May. The FEI will once again seize this opportunity to present the multiple facets of our sport to leading representatives from the sports industry. TEAM OF VAULTING TUTORS TRAINED IN FRANCE A new team of Vaulting tutors is now ready to start work worldwide following the successful FEI course organised at the Ecole Nationale d’Equitation in Saumur (FRA) in December. NFs interested in hosting a Level 1 course for coaches in Vaulting in 2013 can find the syllabus and application form on www.fei.org. 05 CONFERENCE IN ITALY EXPLORES BEST TRAINING METHODS Medical, physiological and physical aspects of equine and human athletes were identified and explored at a conference organised by the Italian Equestrian Federation in Verona on 11 and 12 March. The conference followed the success of a similar event in Rome last year. It aimed to raise awareness among riders, instructors and other equestrian stakeholders of the importance of prioritising training methods and physical preparation for horses and riders to enhance sports performance, while respecting and protecting the physical well-being of both. © V.Unt Nominations for the FEI Awards 2013 will open in early June. Now is the time to start thinking about who deserves to be rewarded in one of the five categories: Reem Acra Best Athlete, HSBC Rising Star, Development, Best Groom and Against All Odds. Information about the categories and past winners can be found at www.feiawards.org FACEBOOK CAMPAIGN HELPS SWEDEN’S “SILVER SARA” The power of social media and the generosity of horse- lovers have enabled Swedish Eventing individual silver medallist Sara Algotsson Ostholt to buy Mrs Medicott, the horse she hopes to ride at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. When former Eventing rider Tina Lundin heard that the owner of Sara’s potential Rio ride intended to sell the horse, she set up a Facebook group and raised approximately 80,000 euros within a few weeks. This money and a donation from a sponsor have enabled Sara to become the proud owner of Mrs Medicott. She was able to thank Tina in person when they met for the first time at the Swedish Equestrian Federation’s Centenary gala, where Tina’s solidarity was rewarded with the NF’s © Swedish Equestrian Federation Initiative of the Year Award. 06 HSBC FEI CLASSICS™ SERIES RESUMES IN THE USA ©Peter Nixon/FEI ©Peter The third leg of the HSBC FEI Classics™ series will take place at the Rolex Kentucky Three Day Event (USA) from 25 – 28 April. Craig Barrett’s classy performance with Sandhills Brillaire clinched him the title at the second event of the series in Adelaide (AUS). The New South Wales rider was also awarded the HSBC Training Bursary, which at each leg of the series goes to highest placed rider who has never previously completed a 4* event. Craig is now second in the HSBC FEI Classics™ standings, behind New Zealand’s Andrew Nicholson (pictured left). After Kentucky, the HSBC FEI Classics™ series will continue at the Mitsubishi Motors Badminton Horse Trials (GBR), Luhmülen (GER) and the Land Rover Burghley Horse Trials (GBR). The cross country and jumping phases of most of the events will be broadcast on FEI TV. The United States Equestrian Federation (USEF) was honoured as the Equestrian Social Media Awards (ESMA) World Award winner. The new FEI Solidarity category of the ESMA was won by the Wilson sisters (NZL) for showing social media followers how New Zealand’s beautiful wild horses, the Kaimanawas, can be domesticated and adjust to their new lives as sports horses.

  • Faults in International Showjumping Are Not Random
    1 1 Faults in International Showjumping are not random 2 3 David Marlin, Cambridge, UK, [email protected] 4 Jane Williams, Hartpury University, Hartpury, Gloucestershire, UK 5 Corresponding author: [email protected] 6 ABSTRACT 7 Performance analysis (PA) involves the systematic observation and analysis of factors identified to 8 enhance performance to improve athlete decision-making in a specific sport. PA is commonplace in 9 human sports, yet despite potential advantages, its application remains limited in equestrianism. 10 This study aimed to evaluate if factors anecdotally associated with performance in elite 11 showjumping influenced competitive success. 250 combinations attempting 3052 jumping-efforts 12 across 2nd round European FEI Nations Cup 2017 competition were analysed. Types of fault (e.g. 13 pole down, refusal etc) were recorded as well as characteristics of the jump (e.g. jump type, 14 approach angle). Combinations jumped clear at the majority of attempts (93.6 %; n=2857) with 15 faults only occurring at 6.4% of jumps (n=195). The most common faults were: knock-downs (5.5 %); 16 time penalties (0.8 %); faults at water jumps (0.3 %); refusal (0.2 %). Faults were distributed across 17 all fence types, however were more common at upright fences (49 %) and within combination fences 18 (41 %). A linear relationship was found between jumping-effort number and number of fences 19 knocked-down (r = 0.7; P < 0.001). There were 2.8 times more knock-downs for the second half of 20 the course (efforts 9 - 15) compared with jumping-efforts 1 - 7 (P < 0.05).
