Where do we want to go? Which future?
The FUTURE
Fédération Equestre I nternationale, Endurance Forum 2017, 02.05.2017
Vision
- To ensure:
Endurance athletes compete, complete & win fairly whilst maintaining high standards of horsemanship. The sustained development of the sport globally, operating within the FEI Code of Conduct for the Welfare of Horses. The FUTURE
Fédération Equestre I nternationale, Endurance Forum 2017, 02.05.2017
Values:
- Clean Sport
- Horsemanship & Welfare
- Sporting Integrity
- Partnership
The FUTURE
Fédération Equestre I nternationale, Endurance Forum 2017, 02.05.2017
Horse Welfare
Early Endurance competition: To complete the event is to win ; considered a personal achievement The prize for competing the event was a ride (Quilty/Tevis) buckle and/or bag of feed Endurance as a modern professional sport success means: Achieving personal & national expectations Contributes to stature & prestige Prizes- money & valuables Increasing value of horse The FUTURE
Fédération Equestre I nternationale, Endurance Forum 2017, 02.05.2017
Horse Welfare
- Welfare example
As horses qualify from novice to 3 star endurance horses, the value of the horse increases. A novice horse valued at $4,000 horse could sell for $40,000 or more once qualified Increasing pressure on owners to get horse qualified for sale
The FUTURE
Fédération Equestre I nternationale, Endurance Forum 2017, 02.05.2017
Horse Welfare The increased value of the endurance horse is filtering down through the sport in a number of ways:- Increased demand for endurance horses internationally Increased market value for proven endurance horses Pressure to get a horse qualified as an endurance horse as soon as possible Increased competition at local rides leading to faster times Leads to increased risk to welfare of the horse Increased responsibility of veterinarians to protect the welfare of the horse Development of highly skilled endurance veterinarians The FUTURE
