THE FEI CODE OF CONDUCT

FOR THE WELFARE OF THE HORSE

 

The Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI) expects all those involved in

international equestrian sport to adhere to the FEI’s Code of Conduct and to

acknowledge and accept that at all times the welfare of the horse must be

paramount and must never be subordinated to competitive or commercial

influences.

1. At all stages during the preparation and training of competition horses,

welfare must take precedence over all other demands. This includes good

horse management, training methods, farriery and tack, and transportation.

2. Horses and competitors must be fit, competent and in good health before

they are allowed to compete. This encompasses medication use, surgical

procedures that threaten welfare or safety, pregnancy in mares and the

misuse of aids.

3. Events must not prejudice horse welfare. This involves paying careful

attention to the competition areas, ground surfaces, weather conditions,

stabling, site safety and fitness of the horse for onward travel after the event.

FEI Check List - Draft Schedule 2007 DRESSAGE

13

4. Every effort must be made to ensure that horses receive proper attention

after they have competed and that they are treated humanely when their

competition careers are over. This covers proper veterinary care, competition

injuries, euthanasia and retirement.

5. The FEI urges all involved with the sport to attain the highest levels

of education in their areas of expertise.

 

A full copy of this Code can be obtained from the Fédération Equestre Internationale,

FEDERATION EQUESTRE INTERNATIONALE (FEI)

REMINDER FOR RIDERS AND TRAINERS

REGARDING WARMING-UP AND TRAINING AREAS

 

In recent years the warming-up areas have become more accessible to spectators,

judges, press and media who enjoy watching skilful and sensitive riding and

training methods.

Every rider and trainer must accept his responsibility to uphold the high level of

horse welfare our sport has achieved.

All warming-up and training areas are supervised by officially appointed FEI

stewards. Their job is to ensure that FEI regulations are enforced and riders and

trainers maintain standards of riding and warming-up in accordance with art. 143

and 144 of the FEI General Regulations.

Should any spectator, rider, trainer or judge be concerned about, or feel they are

witnessing rough or unfair riding or training, without delay they should immediately

report the incident to the FEI Steward. The FEI Steward will then decide on the

appropriate course of action including reporting the incident to the Chief Steward

who will report to the President of the Ground Jury.

More detailed information regarding disciplinary procedures can be found in the FEI

General Regulations, art. 174.

FOR THE INFORMATION OF ORGANISING COMMITTEES

 

STABLE SECURITY/STEWARDING AT INTERNATIONAL EVENTS

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS TO ENSURE IMPLEMENTATION OF

VRs Art. 1005.2.5, Annex X

1. ACCESS TO STABLE AREA

 

The stables must be completely enclosed within a suitably restrictive perimeter

(stable area) which will act both as a deterrent to the admission of

unauthorised persons and to the exit of horses. The area must be sufficiently

large to allow horses to be evacuated from the stables in an emergency but

still remain within the confines of the perimeter.

Whenever possible the stable area must include only stables; lorries,

caravans, etc., should not be permitted within the area unless specifically

needed as accommodation for horses and/or grooms.

Access to stables must be limited to those persons indicated in VRs Art.

1005.2.5. It is essential that the official issuing authorised access be a

responsible person of seniority within the Organising Committee.

2. CONTROL OF ACCESS

 

A control system must operate at all entrance gates so that there is an

efficient and reliable method of identifying those who enter and leave the

stable area at any time.

Extra vigilance must be used in establishing the identity of persons and

reasons for entering the stables during the night.

3. STEWARDING OF STABLE AREA

 

At least one stable steward, directly responsible to the Chief Steward, must be

present or readily available in the vicinity of the stable area 24 hours a day

during the entire duration of the event. He may be assisted by deputies as

required. The steward/deputies must regularly patrol the stable area, without

establishing any predetermined pattern, to discourage any form of illegal

practices or abuses to horses. Any misdemeanours must be reported

immediately to the stable steward who must, in turn, report to the Chief

Steward.

The duty of the stewards is therefore to safeguard the welfare of the horses

and to prevent any form of illegal practices.

FEI Check List - Draft Schedule APPENDIX 2006 DRESSAGE

24

4. GROOMS

 

It is appreciated that grooms wish to remain with their horses during the

night. Only grooms duly registered with the OC are permitted to do so.

The Person Responsible must ensure that his/her grooms, or any other

authorised persons with access to his/her horses, are familiar with the security

and stewarding procedures operating at the event attended.

5. MOVEMENT THROUGHOUT EVENT GROUNDS

 

Movement of horses between the stables, practice, grazing and main arena

must be strictly controlled. The optimum layout for Jumping and Dressage

disciplines is attached. It is appreciated that flexibility will be required

depending on the requirements of other disciplines.

6. STEWARDING OF PRACTICE ARENA

 

The Chief Steward must ensure that all practice arenas are adequately

stewarded all the time that they are officially open. He must also ensure that

these arenas are subject to random control when they are officially closed.

7. GRAZING AREA

 

It is recommended that a grazing area be provided at all outdoor events, and

that this be subject to random control. If available, horses must only be

grazed or walked in hand within this area.

The Foreign Judge/TD at events will be specifically asked to check that the

relevant requirements are met as reasonably as can be expected, depending

on the discipline, and to indicate clearly any shortfalls, following which

consideration may be given to altering the category of the event in future.

FOR INFORMATION

 

BASIC PRESS FACILITIES

Requirements from the International Alliance of Equestrian

Journalists (IAEJ)

 

Helping the media to provide good coverage for your competition is one of the

cheapest forms of publicity available. Stories in newspapers, magazines or on the

radio or television will do a lot for your event, for your sponsors and for the overall

visibility of equestrian sport in your area. While media requirements at the top

levels can be elaborate, attention to some very simple and easy details can do a lot

to help the media exposure of even the smallest competition.

• Programmes, starting orders, course plans and results must be available at

all times. The media must be given priority in the distribution of final results.

• A small, reserved working area should be available. This can be a small room

or a separate space within the secretariat or show office.

• At least one telephone line must be exclusively available for the media and

must be accessible for modem. It does not have to be for free, but available

for the media. It can be difficult for the media to find a suitable phone for

connecting a laptop so this is a very helpful thing to provide.

• One telefax must be available. As above, it does not have to be for free.

Journalists can pay for their phone calls, but it does need to be available.

• Press stand. Some seats should be reserved for the media close to the

competitors.

• Press officer. Even in the smallest show, there should be somebody aware

that the media might show up and need some help. Within the organizing

committee, somebody should be responsible for answering questions from

the media if needed (including on the telephone) or to organize a press

conference.

• Access to the warm-up areas. It is essential that journalists and

photographers have a chance to contact the riders for interviews, photos

etc., and this is best done near the warm-up area.

• Parking. At least for the photographers who have to carry heavy equipment,

there should be a possibility of getting into reserved parking areas next to

the competition venue.

• It would be helpful if accredited press have the opportunity to have some

food and drink readily available.
