FEI ANNUAL REPORT 2004 5

In November 2004, the FEI Bureauestablished a task force to review thepolicies necessary for the eliminationof abusive and illegal performance-enhancing drugs and to review thegeneral medication control of horsesas well as its communication. I amconfident that, with the firm deter-mination and support of all of thoseinvolved in the sport, we can rapidlyimplement drastic measures to ensurea clean and fair sport.

These last few years, many efforts were made by the FEI in the fieldof sports development, through a dedicated Development Fundand the increased cooperation with the Olympic Solidarity. It is areal satisfaction for us to welcome new countries to the highestlevel of competition. The number of nations taking part in theOlympic Games has grown from 25 in Atlanta in 1996 to 39 inAthens, which demonstrates the encouraging growth of our sport.

During 2004, one of the major tasks of the FEI DevelopmentWorking Group was the FEI Coaching System. In total six regionalOlympic Solidarity courses for coaches were organised in Barbados,Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Swaziland and South Africa. The implemen-tation of the FEI Coaching System requires that developing NFs putin place their own coaching structure, thus providing a solid basisfor the orderly growth of the sport in their country.

This year's FEI November Bureau Meeting was organised in BuenosAires upon the invitation by the Federación Ecuestre Argentina andin conjunction with the final event of the Samsung Nations CupSeries. I take this opportunity to mention once more the incrediblesuccess of the Samsung Super League and thank our Korean part-ner for their dedication to the project.

The number of international competitions on the FEI calendar hasgrown to reach 1533 in 2004. This number has more than doubledsince 2000. The result is a very substantial increase in the workloadof the FEI Secretariat staff in Lausanne, and I would like to emphasizehere their dedication and thank them for their constant efforts andcommitment.

HRH The Infanta Doña Pilar de Borbón

Athens 2004 was very special for equestrian sport. “Welcome Home”was the motto of the Olympic Games which were returning to theirroots. This was especially true for the equestrian disciplines which hadbeen part of the ancient Olympic Games in 680 BC in the form ofchariot and horse races.

At Markopoulo, horses and riders could benefitfrom state-of-the-art installations – which werefar beyond the specifications and requirements ofthe FEI – including remarkable stables and one ofthe world’s most modern horse clinics. The AthensOrganising Committee for the Olympic Games(ATHOC) must be congratulated for what theyaccomplished at Markopoulo. The atmosphere wasfriendly and warm and the competitions blessedwith beautiful weather.

Despite the overall success of the Olympic Gamesand the unforgettable Greek hospitality, equestriansport went through several successive ordeals, theworst of which undoubtedly were the alleged horsedoping cases revealed a few weeks after the Games.

High profile positive medication cases have a de-vastating impact on equestrian sport. The negativemedia coverage is damaging to the healthy imageof our sport and can discourage sponsors, spectatorsand fans. Moreover, I believe that young riders andnewcomers to the sport must be able to identifythemselves to high level competitors who, as rolemodels, are expected to set the pace in the fightagainst doping. I would like to urge internationalriders to strictly follow the medication proceduresand make sure that the attention and care theydedicate to the welfare of their horses are neverimpeded.

There is an important difference between medica-tion and doping, the latter meaning the presence ofprohibited substances administered to enhanceperformance and susceptible of endangering thehorses' health. Like a number of internationalfederations before us, the FEI has come to realisethat our procedures must be reviewed as they areno longer appropriate to deal with the increasingnumber of positive cases, as well as the escalatingmedia interest.

OLYMPIC GAMES

1. The Games of the XXVIII Olympiad were celebrated in Athens from 13 to 29 August

2004. The equestrian events took place at the state-of-the-art Markopoulo venue.

2. Special efforts were made so that neither the horses nor the humans suffered from

the high temperatures.

3. Pippa Funnell (GBR), bronze individual and silver team medallist, on Primmore’s Pride.

The new Eventing format with a shortened cross-country course and no steeple chase

became a real asset for the Olympic competition.

4. Individual Olympic Eventing champion Leslie Law (GBR) on Shear L’eau.

5. France, team Olympic Eventing champions.

6. With a new horse, the wonderful ten-year-old Salinero, and after five months out of

competition because of a serious leg injury, Anky Van Grunsven (NED) defied her own

expectations in retaining her Olympic crown won four years ago in Sydney.

The medal-go-round for the team and individual Eventing competitions

was one of the biggest stories of the 2004 Athens Olympics which was

eventually settled by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).

After a brilliant Dressage display, a faultless Cross Country and team

Jumping test, and only a fence down in the individual Jumping, Bettina

Hoy (GER) on Ringwood Cockatoo became the first woman ever to win

an individual Olympic Eventing gold medal. It appeared however that

the pair had crossed the start line twice in the team Jumping test. The

turn of events was initially investigated by the Ground Jury whose con-

clusion was that Hoy’s action should be penalised with the addition of

14 penalties. The Appeal Committee, petitioned by the Germans, over-

turned the Ground Jury’s verdict. As a result, an appeal was filed jointly

by the National Olympic Committees of France, Great Britain and the

USA. It was upheld by the CAS and so it was that France became team

Olympic Champions, Great Britain won the silver and the USA bronze.

The new individual Olympic Champion was Britain’s Leslie Law, followed

by Kim Severson (USA) and Pippa Funnell (GBR).

1. Sweden’s golden girls Marie Kahrle, Cecilia

Qvarnström and Carin Ekenberg braved the

rainy weather to conquer the first place at

the FEI European Driving Singles

Championship at Astorp (SWE).

Marie became also the individual winner.

2. Germany’s Nicola Ströh on Centuro was the

individual female gold medallist at the FEI

World Vaulting Championship held from 5 to

8 August at Stadl Paura (AUT).

3. The first ever FEI World Reining Masters Final

took place in Oklahoma City (USA) over two

categories: Open (all nations) and Restricted

(only nations that did not participate in the

2002 WEG final). Jeannette Kraehenbuehl (SUI)

astride ARC Golden Boy won the restricted

category and placed third in the open category.

4. The 2004 FEI World Endurance Championship

took place exceptionally in January 2005 in

Dubai (UAE). It was a championship of records:

a record number of NFs and riders participating,

a record speed for 160 km, the best ever vet

gate and truly outstanding veterinary facilities.


PARALYMPIC GAMES

1. Lee Pearson (GBR) on Blue Circle Boy earned two gold medals at the Athens Paralympic Games. The judges were thrilled by

the pair’s magical programme in the Individual Freestyle Test in Grade I awarding them a record-breaking 87%.

2. Silver (Grade III Freestyle) and bronze (Grade III Championship) medallist Bettina Eistel (GER) on Aaron doesn't wear boots.

She wears gloves on her feet and manipulates the snaffle rein with her toes, while simultaneously giving leg aids with her

heels and calves. She holds the curb rein in her teeth. When asked how she managed to control the reins with her feet, she

pointed out that she can do everything with her toes except play the piano.

3. Silver medallist (Grade III Championship) Bianca Vogel of Germany rode the impressive liver chestnut warmblood Roquefort

16. She scored 72.40% and left the arena to huge applause from the entire spectator crowd.

8. Cian O’Connor and Waterford Crystal put on an impressive performance to win the individual Jumping gold and Ireland’s

only Olympic medal. Unfortunately, their much acclaimed accomplishment has been tarnished by a positive medication

case which is still pending at the time this report goes into print.

9. Germany won the Jumping team gold. This much envied achievement is however in jeopardy due to a positive medication

case for Ludger Beerbaum’s Goldfever 3, which is still pending at the time this report goes into print.

10. And last but not least … the Olympic volunteers without whom the Olympic Games would not exist. No less than

45,000 volunteers were involved in the successful staging of the 2004 Olympic Games.

For the first time in many years, I had the opportunity toattend the World Breeding Championship for Young JumpingHorses in Lanaken (BEL) and found the organisation moreefficient and sophisticated than ever. Similarly to Astorp, raincreated serious problems which were handled most profession-ally. A change of the footing may, however, be required for thefuture.

The 2004 FEI World Endurance Championship took placeexceptionally in January 2005 in Dubai (UAE). It surely was achampionship of records: a record number of NFs and ridersparticipating, a record speed for 160 km, the best ever vetgate and truly outstanding veterinary facilities. In short amagnificent event with a remarkable man behind it all :Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum whose extraordi-nary support and involvement in the sport have raised it to acompletely new level.

However, it is not only the top layers of the sport that arethriving and changing. Equestrian sport is growing at all levels.Thus in 2004 there were 1532 FEI events worldwide asopposed to 1402 in 2003 and 1242 the year before. The numberof international events has doubled in five years.Unsurprisingly, Jumping was the discipline with the highestnumber of events – 620, followed by Eventing with 304.Especially noteworthy is the breakthrough of the Reining dis-cipline: 29 international events were organised in 2004whereas there were only 3 in 2003. France leads in eventorganisation having put on the most events (193), followedby the USA (151) and Germany (134).

After the cancellation of the 2003 FEI General Assembly, itwas obvious that the 2004 edition in Paris would be extremelybusy. And so it proved to be. Most importantly, a considerablerevision of the FEI Statutes and General Regulations wasapproved by the General Assembly. A noteworthy develop-ment was the fact that Paraequestrian was accepted as theeighth FEI discipline. Discussions had been ongoing for severalyears and the outcome was most satisfactory. The appeal of thediscipline was further underlined by the success ofParaequestrian at the Athens Paralympic Games.

Apart from the abovementioned introduction of a fast trackfor dealing with minor positive medication cases, it should benoted that the position of the FEI second-vice president was“opened” in such a way that potential candidates need nolonger be FEI Bureau members. Jane Clarke (USA) steppeddown from the Bureau and the Executive Board after serving

two very satisfactory four-year terms. Jack Pemberton (CAN),the uncommonly resourceful and popular chairman of the FEIDriving Committee, left after a similarly lengthy period. Andso did Elena Petushkova (RUS), who chaired GeographicalGroup III from 1995 to 2004. Katharine E. Jackson (USA),Alexander Machkevitch (KAZ) and Richard Nicoll (USA) wereelected as the chairmen of Group IV, Group III and the DrivingCommittee respectively to replace the outgoing Bureaumembers. The Fédération Française d’Equitation proved to beoutstanding hosts to the 2004 FEI General Assembly.Meetings and functions were organised in a most profession-al manner and the Château de Versailles and Paris City Hallprovided magical scenery for the official dinners. Really, anAssembly never to be forgotten.

The November FEI Bureau Meeting was held in Buenos Aires(ARG) upon the invitation of Gerardo Werthein, president ofthe Federación Ecuestre Argentina, who, together with thefederation’s team provided a warm welcome to all participants.The meetings were very productive leading to extensive discuss-ions on several difficult subjects regarding in particular theproblems in Athens and the medication control issues withwhich the FEI was confronted. The Buenos Aires CSIO wasagain this year the final event of the 2004 Samsung NationsCup Series. The winners of this very exciting competition werethe Swiss team who, as a result, were promoted to theSamsung Super League.

The FEI Commercial Division, which was created late in 2003,began functioning actively in 2004. The Commercial Director,Christophe Troendle initiated what can be considered as amini revolution. The result was a new corporate identity forthe federation, which had never happened in the 83 years ofFEI history. The FEI has evolved enormously over the last fewyears. From a somewhat rigid and remote body, it hasbecome a more global organisation and has demonstrated afirm will to involve all stakeholders of our sport in its actions.The importance of a clear corporate identity, reflecting thepersonality of the FEI has become evident. We are proud tointroduce our new corporate identity, which has been specif-ically created to communicate the core values of our federa-tion. This new visual approach, which places the horse as thefocal element of our logo, will without doubt help build andmaintain a strong personality for the FEI, as the natural leaderof equestrian sport and a reliable partner for all those involved.We are convinced that with everyone’s support, we will ensurethe success of this strong and inspiring brand.

Dr Bo Helander

For the FEI, the year 2004 strongly resembled a roller-coasterride with many ups and downs. Foremost among the positiveswere, of course, the Olympic Games in Athens. They were ahuge success for all 28 sports on the programme includingequestrian, which was held at a fantastic venue featuring top-class sport in all three disciplines. Unfortunately, the sportingachievements were marred by some accidents and judgingmistakes that attracted strong media attention. After theGames, the positive medication tests involving several medalwinners were likewise of great interest for the press. As thesecases have not yet been finalised at the time this report goesto print, I will refrain from further comments.

It should be emphasized that as far as medication control wasconcerned, 2004 has weighed heavily in the balance. Thenumber of positive cases has almost doubled in comparisonto the average recorded in recent years. Some of these caseswere very high profile and were disturbingly recorded atworld championships and other top events. Many of themwere prolonged as a result of the escalating tendency of ridersto seek representation by legal counsels and raise an array ofprocedural and legal arguments. These factors put the FEILegal Department under enormous pressure and it was decid-ed that this department must be restructured in order to bet-ter address the increasingly litigious environment. Theprocess is expected to be completed by mid-2005. In addition,the FEI Bureau at its November meeting decided to create atask force in order to investigate the situation particularlyfrom policy and sports points of view. The conclusions will bepresented at the 2005 General Assembly in London. It shouldalso be noted that within the framework of the new FEIstrategic plan initiated in 2004, a working group was giventhe task of looking at horse welfare issues including the med-ication control system. Finally, as to this problematic area,the 2004 General Assembly accepted a new “fast-track” systemfor handling simpler medication control cases. It is estimatedthat approximately two-thirds of the current case load maybe handled under this new system which will make the workof the Legal Department much more effective and enable theconcentration of time and resources on the investigation andprocessing of more complex cases.

Going back to this summer’sOlympic Games, I would parti-cularly like to highlight the suc-cess of the new Eventing formatwith a shortened cross-country

course and no steeple chase. It became a real asset for thecompetition curtailing the criticisms experienced in recentyears and turning this discipline into a showcase of modernequestrian sport. With the addition of two successful FEIEventing World Cup seasons and a 2004 Final in Pau (FRA) fea-turing an improved participation field compared to the previousyear, the discipline has now reached a well-deserved phase ofrecognition following a period of turbulence. The threat againstits Olympic status has vanished for the foreseeable future.

Given that several horses suffered serious tendon injuriesduring the Olympic Jumping competitions, an IndependentFooting Committee, chaired by Edouard de Rothschild,President of the French racing association France Galop, wascreated. Their goal was to establish the reasons for these acci-dents and produce recommendations for the future. On 17January 2005, the Committee’s final report was presented tothe FEI Executive Board which concluded that the injurieswere caused by a combination of factors and, therefore, notone party was to be held responsible. The recommendationsresulting from the findings were taken very seriously by theFEI Executive Board who decided to adopt strict measures inthe field of footing expertise, veterinary measures and coursedesign through which the safest conditions possible at allfuture championships and games should be provided.

Among the many well organised and successful champion-ships that took place in 2004, I would particularly like tomention the two FEI World Driving Championships. The four-in-hand championship in Kesckemet (HUN) was especiallynoted for huge and enthusiastic spectator crowds. The singleschampionship in Astorp (SWE) on the other hand was quiteunlucky because of the rainy weather, but despite the difficultconditions, the organising committee succeeded in puttingon excellent competitions that brought well-deserved successto the home team.

The Swedish rider, Linda Algotsson on My Fair Lady was againthe winner of the FEI Eventing World Cup Final. She had alsowon the first edition in 2003. She was followed by JeanTeulère (FRA) on Bambi de Brière and Karin Donckers (BEL) onGormley. Improvement from last year was obvious, especially in regardto the entries in the Final. The point system was changed in2004 to relate only to riders (and not to combinations) thusenabling a better understanding of the lead up to the Final.

The change of location and date of the 2005 Final to Malmö(SWE) from 11 to 14 August should provide additional interestand a promising future.

DRIVING COMMITTEEThe FEI Driving Committee held its annual meeting at Astorp(SWE), on 25 and 26 July following the FEI World DrivingSingles Championship.

part of the 21st edition of the GeneralRegulations.

- The Committee heard evidence from the pro-ducer of “Tranquil” which had been found tocontain the prohibited substance Reserpine.Certain batches were contaminated and ridersusing these batches had no possibility to knowthat they contained the prohibited substance.The producer was requested to take immediateaction to warn potential users and to remove allcontaminated products from circulation.

- interpretation of FEI rules- disciplinary matters

In conclusion, it should be noted that the FEI JudicialCommittee is a disciplinary committee which judges casesand therefore cannot act as a prosecutor. This role must beassumed by the FEI Legal Department. In order to maintain aclean sport and enable separation of “coincidental” offendersfrom those that intend to obtain an unfair advantage in com-petition, the FEI has to assume a strong prosecutor’s role inmore cases, obtain expert evidence and allow for decisionsbased on a complete factual background. This may beachieved through the strengthening of the FEI Legal Department.

MEDICAL COMMITTEEThe FEI Medical Committee held its third offi-cial meeting in Rome (ITA), on 4 June.

JUDICIAL COMMITTEEIn 2004 the FEI Judicial Committee met in Tel Aviv (ISR) on 12March; a combination of a meeting and hearings was held inBrussels (BEL) on 17 September; hearings were held in Zurich(SUI) on 2 December. Additional meetings took place on aregular basis by means of conference calls.

Main items/activities included:- establishment of procedures to deal with human medica-

tion cases under the World Anti-Doping Code- medication cases for horses: the Committee decided on

approximately 50 cases stemming from 2003 and 2004events. Until late 2003 the percentage of positives hadremained stable, with the majority of cases graded 3 orlower (lower potential to affect performance) and involvingprimarily negligence, very often by third parties and byamateur riders. In 2004 more frequent testing, a change oflaboratory and certain other factors lead to a doubled per-centage of positive cases. The number of “repeat offenders”is still minimal.The majority of the cases were decided by correspondence,with frontal hearings held in regard to three cases. TheCommittee was also involved with a number of appeals pre-sented to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).

- The Committee emphasized that a more transparent med-ication control system was called for. Traditionally there hadnot been publications regarding judicial cases until the endof the appeal period (or where a joint press release wasagreed upon). Given that there were no objections on legalgrounds to the disclosure of the status of the case through-out the legal process, early communication might counterany unfounded speculation and the notion that the FEIfailed to take action. Decisions should be used as an educ-ational tool.

- The Committee repeated prior recommendations to establ-ish a multi-disciplinary body to conduct a thorough policyreview of medication control. It expressed its satisfaction at theestablishment of a task force to review the FEI medicationpolicy in November 2004.

- “fast track” procedure for positive medication cases forhorses: the Committee drafted the correspondence anddocumentation to be used for the processing of cases inaccordance with this procedure which came into effect as

SPORT DEVELOPMENT

The 2004 FEI General Assembly gave the opportunity to developing NationalFederations to take part in a Development Workshop where three main topics wereaddressed. The first was the FEI Coaching System, presented by Gerry Mullins (IRL),Chairman of the FEI Development Working Group; the second covered the OlympicSolidarity programmes and was introduced by Yassine Yousfi, Project Manager at theInternational Olympic Committee; and the third, which led to vehement discuss-ions, focused on the FEI World Jumping and Dressage Challenges supported by PSI.

FEI DEVELOPMENT WORKING GROUPThe FEI Development Working Group met twice during thisOlympic year: once in April and once in October. The adaptationof the material for the Introduction to Coaching and Level Iwas the Group’s major task throughout the year.

The introduction of the FEI Coaching System resulted in asignificant increase in the workload handled by the FEISecretariat. Reinforcement of the Development Department isconsequently called for in order to allow it to properly performmanaging tasks such as course organisation and follow-up;audit of developing NFs; monitoring of coaches data; ongoingtraining for coaches and tutors; assessment of coaching material;management of development competitions; reinforcementof cooperation with Olympic Solidarity; communication andpublications. The effects in the short term will be the growthof staff and the use of technical experts when needed.

The Development Working Group also contributed to the2010 FEI Strategic Plan.

FEI COACHING SYSTEMThe implementation of the first Olympic Solidarity coursesfor coaches using the FEI Coaching System was the mainobjective of 2004. In total, six regional courses at Level I wereorganised: in Bolivia and Brazil (conducted by Gerry Mullins),Chile (Peter Strijbosch, NED), Barbados (Susanne Macken,IRL), Swaziland (Kathy Amos Jacob, FRA) and South Africa(Karl-Heinz Giebmanns, GER). The first Level II course will beorganised in 2005 in South America.

The advanced training programme for FEI Officials (all disciplines)was well used. Basic courses for judges and course designerswere organised in Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Israel,Latvia and Lebanon. Officials from Hong Kong, Iran, Lithuaniaand South Africa travelled to Europe on development fundingin order to gain experience at FEI shows.

JumpingTraining courses for riders in Algeria, Antigua, Armenia, CaymanIslands, Georgia, Jamaica, Malawi, Netherlands Antilles andUkraine were financed by the FEI Development Fund.The Fund also supported the first Africa Cup in Swaziland andthe Caucasus Cup in Georgia.

Dressage The first Latin American Dressage Forum took place in SaoPaulo (BRA). The Forum was organised around the followingthemes:- basic principles and philosophy, new rules and judging, by

Mariette Whitages, FEI Dressage Committee Chairman- training and training programmes for children, by Jean

Bemelmans, trainer- development: achievements and plans for the future, by

Jacqueline Braissant, FEI Development Project Manager;- horse anatomy and the influence of horse riding on anatomy,

by Gerd Heuschmann, FEI Veterinarian- young horses, by Angelika Fromming, FEI International Judge.

Training courses were held in Antigua, Czech Republic, Haiti,Jamaica, Kenya, Malawi, Latvia, Slovakia, Swaziland,Zimbabwe and Zambia.

Both the FEI World Cup Jumping and Dressage events inCentral European and Central Asian Leagues received an FEIcontribution. In Dressage, this contribution was only given toshows with Young Riders classes.

EventingEventing has had a lot of success in this first year of developingthe discipline in Eastern Europe. Andrew Griffiths (GBR), projectcoordinator and FEI Technical Delegate, Ronald Alexander(GBR), course designer, Christian Zehe (GER), course designerand builder, Jean-Philippe Camboulives (FRA), FEI Tutor, andEkaterina Voronova (RUS), regional coordinator wereinvolved in this project. Two cross-country courses were builtin Belarus for a CCI1* and a CIC2*. Three existing courses inRussia at one-, two- and three-star level (CIC-W) wereupgraded. Three competitions were organised: Minsk in May2004, Moscow in June and August 2004.

A ground jury composed of FEI International Judges officiatedat these competitions. Extensive informal discussionsbetween international and local officials as well as coursewalks with detailed explanations by the course designer andtechnical delegate took place at all the events. Special atten-tion was paid to the CCI3* cross country fences some ofwhich are fairly new to most riders.

A first-ever postcompetition debriefing was conducted by FEITutor Jean-Philippe Camboulives. The entire competition hadbeen recorded and riders, officials and Tutor went through

each individual performance commenting on the mistakesand suggesting improvements and possible new trainingtechniques. Good basis was established for a proper courseaccording to the FEI Coaching System.

Eventing in South America has evolved tremendously. As aresult of the efforts of José Ortelli (ARG), a forum was organisedin Argentina in November on the occasion of the country’snational Eventing championship. Representatives from theneighbouring countries were also present. Wayne Roycroft,FEI Eventing Committee Chairman, and Catrin Norinder, FEIEventing Department Manager attended. Similarly to Russia,a postcompetition debriefing was conducted by Jean-PhilippeCamboulives.

VaultingThis discipline is growing at a speedy pace in South andCentral America and will be the first nonolympic discipline tojoin the FEI Coaching System. A vast programme is coordinat-ed by Fernanda Shaw (ARG). Clinics, conducted by DietmarOtto (GER) and Bjorn Ashbash (GER), were organised inArgentina and Brazil with the assistance of the FEIDevelopment Fund. Judges from Argentina, Colombia, Braziland Mexico attended an FEI seminar at Warendorf (GER).

EnduranceThe FEI Development Officer, Elizabeth Van Schelle (BRA),worked very hard bringing new countries from South andCentral America to the competition. Seminars for Judges andVeterinarians were organised in Argentina, Mexico andUruguay. In South Africa, Dereck Liebeberg (RSA) is alsoworking hard to develop this discipline.

DrivingFEI World Cup Driving: a seminar for Driving Officials, sup-ported by the FEI Development Fund, was organised atWarendorf (GER).

The FEI Steward General, Paul Weier (SUI) conducted acourse for Stewards for Geographical Groups V and VI inColombia.

COMPETITIONSFEI WORLD DRESSAGE CHALLENGE SUPPORTED BY PSILate November marks the end of the competitions of the FEIWorld Dressage Challenge supported by PSI. It was a relief forthe 20 dedicated and efficient FEI Judges who came backexhausted but full of wonderful memories and adventures. Itgave a great satisfaction to the FEI to note that the expecta-tions were fulfilled; the competition went well and was onceagain an outstanding success.

In 2004 participation increased by more than 10 %. We werevery pleased to welcome Slovakia for the first time. Koreacame back after two years of absence demonstrating a very


refrain from getting involved and therefore do not takeadvantage of this competition to judge and share their viewswith the FEI Judges.

Group 2: CRC, COL, GUA, MEX, PERJacques van Daele (BEL) and Garry Rockwell (USA) judged inthis Group for the third consecutive year. They saw with sat-isfaction that their endeavours had been worth the while.Their efforts, together with the willingness of the riders tolearn, have resulted in a higher level each year. Mr Van Daelealso gave a basic stewarding seminar in each country. Mexicoand Colombia are strong and have taken the lead in theGroup. However, the other countries are not far behind andhave made significant progress.

Group 3: BOL, ECU, ESA, HON, VEN All in all, the number of riders has increased. Unfortunately,Venezuela withdrew and it is to be hoped that they willcome back in 2005. In Bolivia, the competition which wassupposed to be held in La Paz was moved to Santa Cruz.There was an additional competition in Honduras. Thiscountry did not participate in 2003 and has come backafter making a big effort to raise their level. In this Grouplocal judges did not take the opportunity to “shadowjudge” either.

Group 4: GRE, ISR, KAZ, ROM, UAEDr Barnabas Mandi (HUN) and Peter Engel (GER) judged inGroup 4 which proved rather complicated considering thedifficult routing. The competition in Kazakhstan had to becancelled and, except in the UAE, the weather conditionswere bad. November is not a suitable month for holding outdoorcompetitions in these countries. This unfortunate planningwas mainly due to the Olympic and Paralympic Games heldin August and September in Greece. As last year, Romania didnot enter any children and the number of participantsremained regrettably low.

Group 5: BLR, HUN, RUS, SLO, UKRThis Group is the one where attendance at Prix St. Georgeslevel is the largest. The powerful Dressage tradition of theEastern European countries is strongly felt. All four categoriessaw riders winning with a score higher than 68%. The competi-tion was broadcast on TV in some places and the judges wereinterviewed in Moscow. The level has improved and especiallythat of the 5-year-old horses in Belarus. However, the lack oftrainers is a real problem. Some good local judges judged inshadow but the need for courses and seminars for judges isstrongly felt in this area.

Group 6 : CZE, EST, LAT, LTU, SVKIn 2002, there were only three countries: Czech Republic,Lithuania and Latvia. In 2003, Estonia completed the BalticStates and in 2004, Slovakia joined the Group. Dressage isdeveloping significantly not only in terms of competitors, butalso of standards. There is a huge potential in these coun-tries and we expect greater participation in the future.Unfortunately, there was no media coverage and very fewspectators. Local judges were always present except inSlovakia and Estonia.

Group 7: BOT, KEN, NAM, SWA, ZAM, ZIMThis Group is perhaps the one which improved the most in allaspects. Riders are keen to learn and have followed thejudges’ advice. Big improvements have been noticed every-where but especially in Zimbabwe and Swaziland. Botswanashowed enormous progress in the grooming of the horses.

Zambia reached an average score of 67 % in the children’scompetition which is remarkable. There was no TV coveragebut articles were published in the press. National Judges werescribes in some places or judged in shadow. A homemadevideo showing the Challenge tests ridden by British top riderswas a great success.

Group 8: INA, IND, MAS, SIN, THAHere again the number of riders has increased, especially inthe Novice test. The level is improving very slowly and wehope that with the forthcoming 2008 Olympic Games,Dressage will gain popularity. There was TV coverage inMalaysia and Indonesia. Harriet Walsh from Singaporeachieved a score of 72.2 % in the Children’s competition.

Group 9: CHN, HKG, KOR, NZL, TPEThis Group is usually an easy one. Travel, running of the competi-tions, accommodation, riding facilities, and weather conditionsare all harmonious. Most flights are direct and distancesbetween countries reasonable. Korea came back after someyears of absence entering 14 rider/horse combinations. Chinais making a very big effort to improve their level and developthe discipline. The show in Beijing was attended by sponsorsMr and Mrs Kasselmann. Although New Zealand has a highergeneral level (they won all 4 classes with an average result of60%), promising riders and horses from Korea, China andTaipei are heading to the top. For the second consecutiveyear, Mandy Littlejohn (NZL) won the Group ranking at PrixSt. Georges level and is consequently, for the second time,qualified for the Final in Hagen. In all countries the generaldiscussion with riders as well as the video and clinic sessionswere greatly appreciated.

Group 10: ANT, BAR, BER, DOM, JAM, TRIIsobel Wessels (GBR) and Peter Engel (GER) went for the sec-ond time to the Caribbean from 24 March until 18 April. Forthese two hard workers, the Tour was quite long consideringthe low number of riders involved in each country. Ways toshorten it, such as organising the veterinary inspection on theday of the competition, have been requested for next year.The level has not improved from last year probably due to thelack of stimuli as there are practically no other shows duringthe year apart from the Challenge. The children in particularhave problems riding in a 20 x 60 m arena. Most horses arenot sensitive to the aids and contact between hand andmouth is a big problem. The number of spectators was quiteimpressive compared to other groups. Generally speaking,competitions were very well organised. The clinics were heldin the competition arenas. In some countries, even two arenaswere at the judges’ disposal to conduct the practical session.In Barbados, TV and press were represented.

good level. Not all were that fortunate. The Philippines andVenezuela withdrew while unlucky Kazakhstan saw the roofof their indoor arena fall down two days prior to the compet-ition, which obviously forced them to cancel it. Fortunately,and thanks to the support of Israel, the Judges’ routing wasnot modified and they stayed some additional days in thearea giving clinics before continuing their trip to Romania.

The rule on the limitation of participation of riders and horsesat a level higher than Prix St. Georges, introduced in 2003,was finally accepted and significant increase in the number ofchildren participating was noted.

From the Judges’ reports, we have noted that the PSI sponsorshiprequirements were fulfilled by all NFs and PSI prizes were dis-tributed to everyone except in countries where problems atcustoms arose. This is a recurrent problem which hasremained difficult to solve.

OVERVIEW OF THE GROUPSGroup 1: ARG, BRA, CHI, RSA, URUOnce again South Africa won all four categories of the FEIWorld Dressage Challenge supported by PSI. Martine Lambert(RSA), who went twice to the Final in Hagen representingZimbabwe and winning the first one, is still leading the Prix St.Georges level in Group 1. Argentina took advantage of theAdditional Competition to enter two riders at Intermediate Iand one at Grand Prix level. Unfortunately, “shadow judging”does not appear to be very popular and national judges

FINALS OF THE FEI WORLD JUMPING ANDDRESSAGE CHALLENGE SUPPORTED BY PSI As every year since 2001, the Hof Kasselmann hosted the2003 FEI World Jumping and Dressage Challenge Finals sup-ported by PSI. From the moment they arrived on 28 June, the50 riders qualified for this event enjoyed an active pro-gramme combining both competition and entertainment. The Children’s Dressage Final organised indoors took place on3 July, while the adults fought for their titles on 4 July. It wasnoted with great satisfaction that the level of the Childrenhad improved compared to last year’s. Brigette Learmonth(NZL), Giuliana Gasparin-Lucchesi (BRA) and Chara Pouli(GRE) performed well the test which had been reviewed forthis occasion. The Jumping and Dressage Challenge Finals for Adults withchange of horses were, as always, very exciting and wellattended. In Jumping, four riders battled for the three firstplaces. Annika Reintam (EST) was without discussion the bestand won ahead of Jorge Raul Garzon Baquero (COL) and AnnaChristina Gansauer (ECU). Mauricio Garcia Ballesteros (PUR)finished fourth. In Dressage, the best three riders after thesecond Qualifier fought for the first place. Finally, AndreaHarrison (RSA) took the lead ahead of Akoele Roachford(BAR) and Brigitte Davidow (NAM).

AFFILIATIONSThree new National Federations were warmly welcomed to theFEI - the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (MKD) -Group I, the Cayman Islands (CAY) - Group IV, and Sri Lanka(SRI) - Group VIII, thus bringing the number of FEI memberfederations to 133.

FEI WORLD JUMPING CHALLENGE SUPPORTED PSIThe participation in the 2004 FEI World Jumping Challengesupported by PSI slightly decreased compared to the previousyear, i.e.

Category A Category B2002 523 participants 274 participants2003 528 participants 363 participants2004 489 participants 321 participants

This was due to the withdrawal of some strong NFs such asAlgeria, Argentina and Ukraine. However, we have noted thefirst participation of Armenia, Lebanon, Tunisia, China andSingapore in Category A. In Category B, we welcomed Cuba,El Salvador and Barbados.

Category/NF Category/NF1997 A=23 B=71998 A=27 B=61999 A=30 B=102000 A=31 B=172001 A=40 B=282002 A=47 B=312003 A=45 B=382004 A=47 B=38

It may seem tempting to compare the levels of every year,however, that is not possible as the course plans are designedby a different course designer each time. But, it appears thatthe course plans of Javier Fernandez (MEX) were found a littleeasier compared to those of 2003.

Similarly to the Dressage Challenge, considerable improvementwas noted in the African group in Category B. Significantprogress was made by the Democratic Republic of Congo,Kenya, and especially Zimbabwe whose representativesAlexia Rogers and Bev Lombard placed first and secondrespectively. Thirty-two riders went clear in Category A and the resultsshow that there is no supremacy of one particular region overthe others. The winner was Prince Fesal bin Saud Alshallan(KSA) ahead of Alvaro Becker (MEX). All in all, the judges were unanimous in recognizing that thiscompetition is a wonderful opportunity for riders from devel-oping NFs to compete and be classified in an internationalranking.Twenty riders from 10 regional groups have won their ticketto the FEI/PSI Final at Hof Kasselmann in Hagen (GER) whichwill be held from 2 to 5 June 2005.

OTHER ACTIVITIESwww.horsesport.org

On 4 August 2004, only days before the opening of theGames of the XXVIII Olympiad, the FEI unveiled its brandnew website.

Over the last few years, the FEI website had become anessential tool in the FEI communications strategy, but also

the central depository of official documents, rules, regulations and variousreports produced for the attention of the National Federations, FEI officials,event organisers and all those involved in equestrian competitions. As itwas increasingly difficult to find the relevant document in this extremelycrowded environment, it became evident that the existing structure no

longer fulfilled its purpose. In 2003, the FEI decided toundertake a broad consultation among all its partners, andreceived as a result numerous comments.

Work could begin.

The fundamental structure of the website was completelyrethought and simplified to allow the visitors to find rightaway what they were looking for. A colour scheme by discpline,based on the FEI discipline pictogrammes, along withstraightforward menus also facilitate the navigation withinthe website which already includes no less than 400 pages.

The latest FEI internal developments such as the FEI calendardatabase and the extensive Olympic disciplines resultssearch tool were integrated in the new website. Morespace has been dedicated to the Technical Committees inorder to inform the equestrian community about the latestevents in their specific field.

During the Olympic Games, the News section was entire-ly dedicated to the developments at the Markopouloequestrian centre featuring real time news and stories.

The contribution of the Heads of the FEI departments whowere instrumental in ensuring a consistent approach to allthe facets of the sport and all those who offered their supportand sound advice to the new www.horsesport.orgshould be acknowledged.

Notes to the financial statements1. These financial statements are subject to approval by the FEI General Assembly.

2. FEI receives in the year of the Olympic Summer Games a contribution from the International Olympic Committee (IOC). It isconsidered that these proceeds, which are only received once every four years, represent a core financing of FEI both forthe year of the Games and the succeeding three years. Starting in 2004, a change in accounting for this contribution hasbeen made to show these amounts as operating revenues over the 4 years of the Olympic quadrenium. This contributionis applied initially to the IOC Contribution Fund and is attributed to revenues in 4 equal annual amounts commencing in theyear of the Games.

3. Designated funds represent funds which require internal approval for their use.

4. Operating funds are those funds of the FEI that have not been designated for any particular purpose and that are freelyavailable for the use of FEI.

5. The financial statements are audited by PriceWaterhouseCoopers, Lausanne, Switzerland.

INTERNATIONAL EVENTS ORGANISED BY NATIONAL FEDERATIONS (NFs)(GAMES, CH, CIO, CI - SENIORS, Y, J, P, CH) 1994 - 2004


* not applicable. Used to show that no international events were organised, either because the NF did not exist or was not affiliated to the FEI.
