22 OLYMPIC FORMATS Eventing

23 Eventing Following Agenda 2020 recommendations, the Eventing Committee has undertaken a consultation process with all stakeholders. The consultation started at the 2015 FEI Sports Forum in Lausanne in April, followed by three dedicated Eventing Open Forums held in Toronto (CAN) during the Pan American Games, at the European Championships in Blair Castle (GBR) and in Boekelo (NED) Asia-Pacific qualifier for the Olympic Games. Many different ideas and proposals have been put forward, studied and discussed. Further to informal consultations with the IOC and the meeting held in Lausanne with Mr Thomas Bach, President of the IOC, on Wednesday 4 th November, it became clear that to address agenda 2020 objectives some changes were needed.

24 Eventing 1. There can only be one Cross Country test for both the Team and Individual athletes/horses to ensure that the best Team and Individuals compete for medals. 2. The traditional order of tests (Dressage - Cross Country - Jumping) held on consecutive days, allows retaining the essence of the discipline (equal importance of the 3 tests), ensuring best monitoring for horse welfare and reliability of immediate results. 3. In line with Jumping and Dressage it is the opinion of the Eventing Committee that limiting the participation to a maximum of 3 riders per nation with the deletion of the drop score for the team competition is the necessary move to address the main objective of a more open and inclusive competition.

25 Eventing The Eventing Committee proposes: A. To allow to a maximum of three (3) horse/athlete combination per nation with the understanding that a reserve combination will be allowed for each nation presenting a team (3 riders). B. To remove the Drop Score for the team competition. C. The Dressage test to be organised in 1 day. A 5 minute test to be developed and ideas on shortening the competition to maximum 6 hours for 65 athletes. D. The Cross Country Test to be organised in 1 day in the traditional starting order of teams and individuals.

26 Eventing E. The Jumping tests (Individual) and (Team) to be organised in 1 day: a. Individual Final (also qualifier for Teams. This could be divided into two sessions to have a shorter final of only the best 20 individuals) b. Team final (for the best 6/7 teams) It is suggested for the Team Final that all members of each team enter the arena together and individually start at a short interval one after the other.

27 Eventing In addition to the above, in the effort of improving the understanding of the sport to new audiences, the Eventing Committee suggests the appointment of an external specialized branding agency to evaluate the possible benefits of advertising the discipline as Equestrian Triathlon.
