  • 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).

    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.
