ANNUAL
REPORT
2007
The world in which we seek to steer a course for modern
horsesport is changing fast and it was against that backdrop
that the scenery of horsesport moved, once again, and to
great effect in 2007.
It is testament to the strength of Para-Equestrian that although
it only joined the FEI in 2006, it has already become a vital
and vibrant member of the FEI family. The hosting of the fi rst
ever FEI World Para-Equestrian Dressage Championships at
Hartpury (GBR) in July 2007 marked a historic moment for
equestrian sport not only because of its fi rst running but also
for the manner in which it was run. The work of the team to
keep the competition going, despite freak weather conditions,
was exceptional. I was particularly touched to hear that the
riders in the CDI had volunteered to cancel their competition
realising the importance of the Championship to the Para-
Equestrian competitors. Let us ensure that this spirit of Fair
Play and recognition of each other’s needs as athletes is never
lost in horsesport.
The infl uence of Para-Equestrian is reaching out across the FEI
and I was particularly delighted that Lee Pearson was elected
Chairman of the fi rst ever FEI Athletes Committee and to
have attended its inaugural meeting at FEI HQ in August.
The establishment of this committee not only provides the
athletes with a voice but also serves as an omnipresent
reminder that without our athletes, there is no sport.
The athletes from Jumping served to remind the FEI that
their voice is a reasonable, responsible and visionary one
when the FEI and the Global Champions Tour were brought
together in September by brave athletes who wished to
FOREWORD

PRESIDENT
protect the future of Jumping. The resulting dialogue was an
active demonstration of the new status quo.
As an athlete I had watched the growth of the Global
Champions Tour prior to my election, and understood that
its creation did not happen in a vacuum. It was the obvious
and inevitable answer to a cluttered commercial landscape
in that discipline. This question of the balance between the
commercial and competitive needs of horsesport is a live
debate that will take time and determination to resolve.
But as the commercial mapping process continues, it was
important to see the FEI World Cup™ Jumping series, one of
the FEI’s key commercial products, further strengthened by
the announcement of its partnership with Rolex.
In Arabic they say “What is learned in youth is carved in
stone” and the awarding of the fi rst ever FEI license to a game
developer and distributor was, I believe, of signifi cance both on
a commercial level and for the future marketing of the sport.
The award to Atari lead to the development and launch in
Autumn 2007 of My Horse and Me, a video game featuring
sport of the fi nest kind and lifestyle experiences at a level
of detail and authenticity never seen before in this gaming
genre.
We know that engaging with youth is one of the greatest
challenges facing all sport and to have the capacity to
take horsesport to the gaming audience has given us the
opportunity to talk directly to both the athletes and fans of
horsesport in this and future generations of young people.
FEI ANNUAL REPORT 2007 05
Youth is the lifeblood of our sport and we celebrate it here in
this publication. Success may be achieved at a later age than
in many sports but if we do not generate interest in children
and young people we will not maintain the pipeline of talent
which will provide the Olympians of tomorrow.
Very few sports want to admit it but their viewership and
membership is ageing. Young people are raised in a society
which delivers them instant gratifi cation, they don’t want
complicated sport, it is part of an alien culture to train for ten
years in the hope of achieving some far distant medal. They
want six-hour success. Their entertainment choices are very
cluttered but we must make sure that we are a loud voice
in a noisy room and that we plan our sport with our future
audience in mind.
My visit to the Good Luck Beijing - HKSAR 10th Anniversary
Cup (Test Event) in Hong Kong was a reminder of the
extraordinary opportunity presented by the Olympics in
presenting horsesport to the audience of Hong Kong and
mainland China. I was delighted to be able to share with
IOC President Jacques Rogge the excellent plans established
between BOCOG and the FEI with great support from The
Hong Kong Jockey Club.
The Benchmarking study undertaken towards the end of
2007 gives us a clearer idea of the position of the FEI against
other International Governing Bodies. There is much still
to do but I felt the fi ndings were encouraging and in some
areas surprisingly positive. Because I am very keen that our
stakeholders should reach their own conclusions on the report,
I do not intend to evidence my comments here. I would,
however, like to highlight the areas relating to governance
as these are germane to this review of the FEI’s performance
during 2007. By comparison with other International
Governing Bodies the report demonstrates that we are the
leading International Governing Body for the democratic
representation of athletes and as an International Sports
Federation I think we should be delighted with this news. In
addition, we have already achieved the IOC’s goal of at least
20% of women on decision-making bodies and we have the
highest percentage of women in our decision-making bodies
of any International Governing Body.
Finally I would like to close by saying how enormously grateful
I am for the support I receive from a very committed Volunteer
Body and from a strong, creative, and hard-working Executive
Team. They both continue to confront the issues facing
horsesport, in the fi rst decade of the 21st century, with energy
and a constructive attitude and are carrying out a programme
of reform that will ensure the future of horsesport well into
the 22nd century.

FEI ANNUAL REPORT 2007 19
With my nomination as FEI Secretary General only hours old,
it gives me great pleasure to retrace some of the steps taken
in 2007, a year replete with change but also of modernisation
and consolidation. Much scrutiny was placed on our activities,
a positive and necessary exercise which not only led to very
pertinent feedback but also yielded a clearer direction and
understanding of the role and objectives of the headquarters
and the responsibilities to both the sport and its stakeholders
and members.
The FEI continued on the exciting if somewhat steep road to
change and modernisation, which can only be achieved with
the continuous efforts and commitment of all. To that effect,
Headquarters defi ned the following core values:
E - xcellence
S - pirit of initiative
P - assion
R - esponsibility
I - ntegrity
T - eamwork
The resulting acronym, ESPRIT, the French for “spirit”, typifi es
the openness, professionalism and enthusiasm that defi ne
FEI Headquarters and guides our personal work ethic and
commitment to our stakeholders.
These core values channel our motivation to make the FEI the
best that it can be. My vision is that of an aligned FEI, where
the goals and efforts of each FEI staff member or contributor
are aligned with those of each department, and in turn with
the objectives that are part of the President’s Manifesto. I
sincerely believe in a focused FEI working professionally with a
service-oriented mindset. As such it will achieve new heights,
given the passion that drives its staff and volunteers.
Within the framework of the core values, the year saw much
work on other key tools such as the start of the drafting of an
operations manual, new thinking on management planning,
and the launch of an ambitious overhaul of information
technology systems.
The FEI21 project, which stands for FEI in the 21st century, was
borne out of close scrutiny and is a major revamp of all IT
related structures at the headquarters, whether in terms of
registration, results, interactive web-based features, to name
but a few aspects of this far-reaching project. As you may
have seen, the last days of 2007 saw the launch of our new
web portal and URL www.fei.org where, step by step, many
FEI21 initiatives will see the day.
With 2’147 international events held in 2007 in the 8 FEI dis-
ciplines, a 400 % increase since 1997 when 542 international
events were held in 6 disciplines, the need for new IT processes
was particularly apparent, not only to increase effi ciency and
reduce errors but also to redirect administrative resources to
provide more creative and innovative solutions to address the
needs of horse sport.
And while much attention was placed in terms of fostering a
coherent and effi cient administrative service to our members,
stakeholders, professional athletes or even the general public,
it is equally and vitally important that we maintain our efforts
in all development related areas so that the developing
equestrian nations, their organisers, offi cials and athletes of
the future have an opportunity in which to further their skills
and realise their potential.
Staying ahead of the game, or even with the game, is a
key component for the success of our sport – not only in

terms of youth, but also in terms of emerging equestrian
nations. Indeed, development has the ability to maintain
the health and balance between the now, the past and
the future of our sport and to this effect, Harald Muller
joined the FEI Development team, as Executive Director
for Development and Sports, bringing with him extensive
experience and knowledge in development from athletics.
Development must necessarily be approached in a
structured and consistent fashion, and it was rewarding to
see that our hard efforts had paid off when the FEI Coach
Education and Certifi cation System was recognised as the
only qualifi cation recognised for equestrian coaches by the
European Union.
Efforts in the fi ght against doping continued apace, with
a number of notable changes seeing the day. Further to
the adoption of the new FEI Statutes, the former Judicial
Committee became the FEI Tribunal, highlighting its role as
the judicial branch of horse sport’s governing body, with the
prosecutor’s role housed within the executive branch. The
Tribunal issued Internal Regulations, codifying the procedures
that govern a case being heard before it. Outside the hearing
room, the Tribunal and Legal Department collaborated so as
to continually track the progress of cases, with the conclusion
that while progress is being made on the time taken to
issue decisions, there is room for continual improvement
in processes. Appeals lodged against FEI Tribunal decisions
before the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), were either
upheld or withdrawn by the appellant before decision,
confi rming a positive trend.
All of these undertakings and achievements have seen
through the establishment of key additional building
blocks for an increasingly modern, dynamic, passionate,
and service-driven institution. I am proud to be taking up
its reins and look forward to discovering the fruits of these
efforts in the future.
FEI ANNUAL REPORT 2007 21
AUDIT AND COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE The former FEI Finance Committee was replaced by an Audit
and Compliance Committee (ACC). The purpose of the ACC is
to have a direct oversight responsibility for compliance with
FEI Statutes, Internal Regulations, policies and procedures
and Swiss law; internal control and risk evaluation; external
auditors. Its main responsibility is to identify and control any
risks as well as to ensure that those are adequately managed
within the organisation.
NOMINATIONS COMMITTEEFollowing the 2007 General Assembly, the FEI included a
Nominations Committee (NC) in its Statutes and Internal
Regulations to further the effi ciency and transparency of its
organisation and ensure that it is universally populated.
The NC is composed of nine members, where each member
represents an FEI Regional Group.
The role of the Nominations Committee is to seek and
receive nominations from National Federations for all
positions on the Bureau, Committees and Tribunal, and to
make recommendations to the Bureau and General Assembly
based on objective eligibility criteria while ensuring that the
composition of each Committee is balanced.
The Nomination Committee met for the fi rst time at the FEI
Headquarters in Lausanne (SUI) from 1 to 2 November.
Main items / activities included:
- Confl ict of Interest and Confi dentiality agreement
- role of the Committee
- procedures and timeline.
ATHLETES COMMITTEEThe inaugural Athlete’s Committee meeting was held on
15 August at the FEI Headquarters followed by a second
meeting, once again at the FEI Headquarters on 6 December.
The establishment of an Athletes‘ Committee was part of the
FEI President’s manifesto and came into being at the 2007 FEI
General Assembly in Estoril (POR). It has for purpose to ensure
that all the disciplines and their main actors are represented
in the decision making process.
JUMPING COMMITTEEThe fi rst of two annual meetings of the FEI Jumping Committee
was held in Windsor (GBR) on 14 May followed by a meeting
in Lausanne (SUI) on 9 October.
Main items / activities included:
- discussions regarding the future and structure of Jumping
- categorisation of both CSI and CSIO events: the need to
align CSIO requirements with those already in place for
CSIs and to provide a clearer perception of the structure
of Jumping events to outsiders – media, spectators and
sponsors
- requirements for CSI and CSIO events concerning, among
other things, prize money, maximum height of obstacles,
maximum entry fee per horse, maximum number of
competitors in the Grand Prix, minimum number of
competitions counting for Rolex Ranking points, etc.
- criteria for the promotion of Judges and Course Designers
to “Offi cial” International status
- the format for the FEI European Championships to conform
to the Olympic Games format due to the large number of
participating countries
- modifi cations relating to the distribution of points for the
Rolex Rankings for FEI Nations Cup competitions at CSIO1*
to CSIO4* events
- Hypersensitisation – protocol for Thermography
- approval for changes to the maximum number of
competitors allowed to participate in CSI-5* Grand Prix
competitions from 40 to 50 (effective as of 2009 for CSIO-5*
Grand Prix Competition events)
- approval for the increase in minimum prize money for CSI-3*
FEI
COMMITTEES
22 FEI ANNUAL REPORT 2007
to CHF 150’000. The maximum prize money for CSI-2*
events would, therefore, be raised to CHF 149’999. The
change is effective as of 1 January 2009
- approval of a number of technical specifi cations for the
Youth Olympic Games
- approval regarding the criteria applying to all organisers
wishing to host new FEI Jumping Series
- introduction of Certifi cates of Capability for the FEI European
Young Rider and Junior Jumping Championships – in effect
for 2009 Championships.
Rolex FEI World Cup™ Jumping Final
19-22 April, Las Vegas (USA)
There was no shortage of drama at the Rolex FEI World Cup™
Jumping Finals in Las Vegas where Switzerland‘s Beat Mandli
reigned supreme with Ideo du Thot.
In a class that seemed to be choreographed to produce
maximum drama, Daniel Deusser rocketed up from overnight
14th to take second place while fellow-German Markus
Beerbaum and Switzerland‘s Steve Guerdat fi nished joint-third.
Defending champion Marcus Ehning had to settle for fi fth
spot, while the sudden departure of hot-favourite Meredith
Michaels-Beerbaum due to a freak fall left the crowd stunned
at the end of the fi rst round.
There was nothing predictable about the 2006-2007 World
Cup series-closer and superb course-building by Brazil‘s
Guillherme Jorge ensured a classical conclusion to one of the
most exciting indoor jumping seasons in many years. This was
only the second time a Swiss rider won the coveted trophy –
Markus Fuchs being the other, winning at Göteborg with
Tinka‘s Boy in 2001.
And as the curtain came down on the 29th FEI World Cup™
Jumping Final in Las Vegas, anticipation immediately veered
to the next season and the much awaited 2007/2008 fi nal
to be staged in the city considered to be the true home of
the FEI World Cup™ Jumping series – Göteborg, Sweden.
Samsung Super League with FEI
and FEI Nations Cup 2007
The Samsung Super League with FEI events produced
fantastic sport throughout 2007, with a suspense-fi lled fi nal in
Barcelona that more than lived up to everybody’s expectations
delivering a nail-biting thriller which saw Germany register a
second successive series title along with victory on the day.
But for France, champions over the fi rst two seasons of this
hugely popular and high-profi le series, it was a case of so
near and yet so far, as they battled on the day with Sweden
to remain in the race, but when it came to the crunch found
themselves at the bottom of the leader board and faced
relegation to the FEI Nations Cup series for the 2008 season.
After a determined and successful FEI Nations Cup campaign
throughout 2007, the Irish advantage at the top of the
league table was unassailable, and their promotion to the
Super League confirmed. Indeed, with victories in Linz-
Ebelsbeg (AUT), Poznan (POL), Drammen (NOR) and
Lummen (BEL), as well as runner-up results in Wellington,
Florida, Prague, Lisbon and Zagreb, Ireland’s determination
was well rewarded.
Thus, in 2008, Ireland returns to the elite eight-nation series
to line out alongside Germany, Switzerland, Great Britain,
Sweden, the USA, The Netherlands and Belgium when the
new season begins in May.

FEI World Cup™ Eventing
The 2007 FEI World Cup™ Eventing Series was an all around
success for organisers, competitors, sponsors and the pub-
lic. Sixteen World Cup Qualifi ers were organized during the
2006/2007 Series in 11 countries (AUS, BLR, CAN, FRA, GBR,
GER, IRL, NZL, POL, RUS, USA). Canada with Mansfi eld (25
riders) and Belarus with Minsk (14 riders), hosted their fi rst FEI
World Cup™ Eventing qualifi er in 2007.
For various reasons, the 2007 Final was not held, however, it
was decided to award the FEI World Cup™ Eventing title to
the rider who had amassed the most FEI World Cup™ points
during the season. This was none other than European Cham-
pion and FEI World Cup™ title holder, Nicolas Touzaint (FRA),
with a total of 230 points.
This came as no surprise as he effectively won both qualifi ers
organised in France in 2007: Fontainebleau (1st with Galan
de Sauvagère and 4th with Hethi Bey) and Martinvast (with
Hethi Bey). Runner-up with 178 points was Phillip Dutton

with Woodburn the qualifi er organized in Mansfi eld, ON
(CAN). Third place in the standings went to Oliver Townend

FEI ANNUAL REPORT 2007 29
STRATEGY A signifi cant new step forward was made in 2007. With the
arrival of an Executive Director for Sports and Development,
the FEI clearly indicated its determination to put in place
a strategy in line with the FEI President’s Manifesto. The
principles of a Development strategy were presented at the
General Assembly in Estoril (POR) and consisted of:
A) Categorisation of NFs based on a 2nd situation analysis
(audit) which will result in a fi ve-level NF categorisation.
B) NFs application to the FEI Development Programme.
C) Signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with
those NFs applying.
D) Approval process of each NFs application according to set
criteria.
E) Completion of an Annual Report Form (ARF) by each NF at
the end of the year.
Each NF applying to the FEI Development Programme will be
asked to present a development project/strategy which will go
through an approval process. A special template will guide NFs
in the project management process.
The funds raised by the FEI President which amount to
CHF 2’000’000 will serve to cover the following areas:
– Transport and Quarantine – Education
– IT-Support – Advice and Service
– Competition Support – Political Support
– Financial Assistance – Contingency
– Structure Building
These funds are considered a one-time contribution and do not fi nance the existing activities of the FEI Development Department outlined in this report.
2007 DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT ACTIVITIESFEI Development Advisory Group
The Group composed of Gerry Mullins (IRL), Jean-Philippe
Camboulives (FRA) and Peter Strijbosch (NED) met in Lausanne
on 29 January to make an up-date of the 2006 season; fi x the
2007 objectives; evaluate Level 2 coaches; identify regional
Tutors; and learn about the FEI Development Strategy.
The Group, including all FEI Tutors, met again in Geneva on 31
July-1 August in the framework of a Tutors’ course. The aim of this
course was to update, coordinate and align the delivery of Level 2
FEI Courses for Coaches by FEI Tutors. It was also the occasion to
review the Level 1 course material after four years of use. Some
modules (Dressage, Eventing) would be reviewed in line with the
Dressage Judges Handbook and the safety issues in Eventing.
EDUCATIONFEI Coach Education and Certifi cation System
As expected, the FEI Coach Education and Certifi cation
System is evolving very well and has greatly contributed to the
development of the sport. In total 21 courses were organised:
17 Level 1 and four Level 2. This is particularly obvious in
Groups V and VI which have now reached the step to have
Regional Tutors and in Group IX where the fi rst regional Level
2 course took place in South Africa. Group III organised three
Level 1 courses in different locations of Russia and one in
Belarus. Estonia (Group II) joined the club with its fi rst regional
course for the Baltic NFs (Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia). Asia
(Group VIII) and the Middle East (Group VII) both organised
two Level 1 courses and Turkey (Group I) organised its fourth
course this year and three new courses are already planned
for 2008. Furthermore the Turkish Ministry for Sport, in the
framework of the European Commission, established that the
only qualifi cation recognised for equestrian coaches would be
the FEI Coach Education and Certifi cation system.
SPORT
DEVELOPMENT
30 FEI ANNUAL REPORT 2007

Following a Tutors course in Lima, Peru, six new Tutors were
appointed by the FEI to conduct coaches courses regionally.
The FEI adopted the European fi ve-Level coaching qualifi ca-
tions model established by the EU Coaching Council (ECC)
and became a Member of the International Council for Coach
Education (ICCE).

Europe to gain experience at European shows.
Training Courses for Riders (clinics)
Group IV is slowly but surely upgrading its riders and the
arrival of FEI coaches in the region will make them soon self-
suffi cient in terms of clinics. This year again, clinics (fl atwork
Jumping & Dressage) were conducted by Denis Soyer from
Belgium in JAM, ANT, HAI and TRI while FEI Level 2 Coach,
Israel Lopez from Puerto Rico went to Jamaica.
TAILOR-MADE PROGRAMMESEventing Development Programme – Eastern Europe
(Supported by the IOC-IF Development Assistance programme)
Russia, after 17 years of virtual absence on the international
scene, succeeded in sending a senior team of six riders to
the 2007 FEI European Championship in Pratoni del Vivaro
(ITA) out of which one rider obtained a qualifying result at
3 star level. Four Juniors from Russia competed in the FEI
European Championship for Juniors in Switzerland where
two obtained a qualifying result at 1 star Level. Finally,
four Russian riders and two riders from Belarus entered
the FEI European Championship for Young Riders in Blair
Castle (GBR) where one Russian rider obtained a qualifying

completely made up from Eastern European Countries (except
for one Irish Judge).
Slovakia: After Estonia in 2006, Slovakia came into the
programme this year. A CCI* with over 30 competitors was
organized with the assistance of the FEI technical team (Andy
Griffi ths, Ronald Alexander, Peter Wilson).
Bulgaria: Improvements in terms CCI* and CCI** continue to
further Eventing in the country, while riders continue to travel
abroad to get more experience.
Estonia is now in its second year and is developing well.
According to the programme scheme, exchanges of Course
Designers and builders were arranged during the year. In
addition, FEI courses for coaches with Eventing modules
were held in Russia (3), Belarus (1) and Estonia (1).
Eventing Development Programme –
South/Central America
(Partly supported by the IOC-IF Development Assistance
programme)
2007 activities focused on the Pan American Games with,
among others, the participation of Argentina, Brazil, Chile
and Uruguay. Brazil, which was part of the Development
Programme last year, qualifi ed a team to take part in the
Olympic Games 2008.
Many CIC3* were organised in Argentina, Brazil, Chile,
Mexico, Uruguay in order to give the opportunity to riders
to get qualifying results to compete at the Pan Am Games.
Technically, an active and dedicated panel of offi cials from
ARG, BRA, URU, MEX, VEN framed these events.
Lack of chance, too much ambition, not enough training,
it is most probable that these factors played a part in the
disappointing results obtained by ARG, CHI and URU. Brazil
however made its entrance in the elite circle.
If the Pan American Games results were disappointing for some
NFs, they had the advantage to clearly show where they stood
and in which direction they were going as well as the efforts to be
made in order to develop the sport towards the elite standard.
In Central America, one to three star events were organised in
Mexico and Guatemala. A Development course for Offi cials
was organised in Uruguay, as well as a Level 2 course with
an Eventing module where a Regional Tutor was identifi ed
and will be especially trained in a Tutors’ course in Peru.
The appointment of a Regional Tutor with a solid Eventing
background (Eventing Judge, Technical Delegate, Steward, FEI
Level 2 Coach) should reinforce the Eventing development
programme on its educational side.

Eventing Development Programme – Group IX
(Supported by Justice for Athletes’ Foundation)
Based on the same principles as the existing Eventing
Development programmes under the coordination of Andy
Griffi ths and José Ortelli, a third programme was initiated
in South Africa, with the objective to expend to other NFs in
Group IX.
South Africa:
• 2007 started with a Level 2 seminar for Eventing Offi cials
in Johannesburg at a CIC one and two star event given by
Giuseppe della Chiesa, Andy Griffi ths and Kees Velanga.
• Andy Griffi ths and Giuseppe della Chiesa spent time looking
at other sites for future development.
• August: Peter Thomas (Consolidated TD) travelled to Estonia
to complete criteria for an upgrade to International status.
• August: Jutta Koivula (FIN) acted as President of the Ground
Jury at Shongweni CCI* and Liz Day as Judge which gave her
qualifi cation to be added on the FEI ‘C’ Judge list.
• September: Ronald Alexander went to Oaksprings CCI*/
CIC2* as part of the FEI development programme to act as
Technical Delegate.
• Ronald Alexander (GBR) viewed a prospective venue in
Johannesburg with the objective to run one and two star
CICs in 2008.
Swaziland:
• Ronald Alexander also travelled to Swaziland to view four
prospective sites. The goal is to run their fi rst FEI event in
the form of the new development class in 2008.

Endurance
Elizabeth Van Schelle (BRA), FEI Development Officer,
organised an FEI course for Endurance Veterinarians and
Offi cials in Colombia.
Veterinary matters
The FEI Development Fund subsidized two FEI courses for
Event Veterinarians in South Africa and Thailand.
Vaulting Development Programme – Group IX
After the start of Vaulting competitions in some NFs of Group
IX and the potential for development of this discipline, a
Development Offi cer in the person of Mrs Barbie Gertenbach
(RSA) was appointed. A special programme is in the process
of being established between the Development Offi cer, the
Vaulting Department and the Development Department.
South Africa which went to the FEI World Equestrian Games
in 2006, Malawi and Swaziland are developing fast. The FEI
Development Fund fi nanced fi ve surcingles from Europe to
equip fi ve team horses. After Swaziland, the second edition
of the Vaulting Africa Cup was held in South Africa and the
FEI Development Fund contributed towards its organisation
in the amount of USD 2’500.
Para-Equestrian
Further to an application to the Christopher and Dana Reeve
Foundation, a grant was attributed to the FEI to conduct
special training for Para-Equestrian riders and their coaches
in CZE, CRO and SWZ. The development programme is
coordinated by Jane Goldsmith (GBR) in coordination with
the Para-Equestrian Department and the FEI Development
Department.
FEI Contribution to
FEI Jumping & Dressage World Cup Shows
The FEI Development Fund supported 14 CSI-Ws in the
Central European and Central Asia Leagues in the amount
of CHF 72’000 as well as CDIs-J/YR in Slovakia, Hungary
and Czech Republic for a total of CHF 20’000.
COMPETITIONSFEI World Jumping Challenge
The FEI World Jumping Challenge had to face several obstacles
throughout the year due to unfortunate circumstances such
as bad weather and horse diseases which forced some NFs to
cancel the competition. However, despite these regrettable
situations with over 1300 riders in both Categories (nearly
650 riders in Category A and 670 riders in Category B) the FEI
World Jumping Challenge proved once again a great success.
CATEGORY AThough the number of riders that actually fi nished the
competition in Category A was nearly the same as in 2006,
it is important to take into account the fact that only 35
countries participated in the FEI World Jumping Challenge
as opposed to 42 in 2006. However, although fewer NFs
participated in 2007, the participation level increased by 20%
in 2007 compared to 2006.
CATEGORY BFor the second year in a row, Category B was inspired by the
Jumping techniques taught in the Level 1 Jumping Module of
the FEI Coaching Education System which included in addition
to the Trot sections introduced in 2006, a compulsory 4 strides
straight line between two obstacles. The principle of the
compulsory 4 strides is to demonstrate the rider’s capability
to control the number of strides in between cross poles. This
is essential to develop the rider’s ability to assess and adjust
the distance before a jump.
After a diffi cult start in 2006, the new format for Category B
was better received in 2007. According to the feedback from
NFs and Foreign Judges, riders have now acquired a better
understanding of the educational purpose linked to this
competition. With over 670 participants out of whom 397
riders fi nished all 4 rounds of the competition, the future of
this Category looks very promising.

Van Stuijvenberg from Venezuela ahead of Juan Clavija from
Colombia. In Cat. B winner Ali Bougrab from Algeria was the
fastest out of the 42 riders that went clear in all four rounds
of the competition. The Team from Colombia fi nished fi rst of
the Team classifi cation for Cat. A, and the Team from Algeria
won for Cat. B.
FEI World Dressage Challenge
The 2007 edition of the FEI World Dressage Challenge ended
on a positive note, it was unanimously recognised by FEI
Judges that the quality of riding had radically improved. In
terms of quantity, the number of participants in the Adult
Classes remained the same as in 2006 (720). However, there
was a slight decrease in the Children’s Class with 200 riders as
opposed to 227 in 2006.
This decrease may have been caused by the difference in Level
between the Children’s Class and the Adult Novice Class. This
concern was raised in 2006 by several Judges and NFs which
found the transition from one level to the next too diffi cult,
it was therefore decided that the FEI would put together
a working group in 2007 to work on the revision of the FEI
World Dressage Challenge tests.
This objective was reached and the 2008 edition of the FEI
World Dressage Challenge is now composed of the following
classes: Preliminary / Elementary / Medium / Advanced / PSG.
The main idea behind this revision was to use this opportunity
and fi nd a way to combine both coaching and competition,
therefore creating continuity between the education of
coaches and their pupils. The working group used the dressage
module of the coaching system to redesign the different
tests used for the competition and create a better cohesion
between all of them and provide a real sense of progression
which did not exist until now. In order to do so, a fi fth test was
added thereby offering riders more opportunities to evolve.
Although the NFs of Belarus and Hungary had to cancel the
competition, the overall number of participating NFs remained
the same as in 2006. With the participation of Slovenia and
Turkey we were able to count 53 NFs in total.
Group 1: ARG, BRA, CHI, RSA, URU
The South African Team once again took the lead in the Team
Competition, dominating the other National Federations with
a total score of 203.59 points. In the individual classifi cation,
though most Classes were once again won by South
Africa, riders Julio Alvarez and Carlos Acuña from Uruguay
distinguished themselves in the Prix St-George thanks to their
excellent performance, allowing them to fi nish respectively
fi rst and second.
Group 2: COL, CRC, GUA, MEX, PER
This year, all Classes were won by Mexican riders which
allowed them to fi nish fi rst of the Team Competition in
front of Colombia. The battle for the third place of the Team
Competition was very tight between riders from Peru (third)
and Guatemala (fourth) as only 0.31 % separated both teams.
Group 3: BOL, DOM, ECU, ESA, HON, VEN
This year, the Team Competition was won by Bolivia which
was a fi rst for this NF. The NFs of Venezuela (second) and
Honduras (third) have been successful in the past fi nishing
regularly in the leading trio of the Team Competition. Ecuador
fi nished forth, El Salvador fi fth and Dominican Republic sixth.
Riders from Ecuador took over the Novice Class with fi ve
riders fi nishing in the top 10.
Group 4: CYP, GRE, ISR, ROM, UAE
Group 4 welcomed back Turkey which had not participated
in the FEI World Dressage Challenge since 1996. The Turkish
Team fi nished third right behind the United Arab Emirates
(second) and Greece (fi rts). Though Greek riders won two
out of the four Classes, Israeli rider Reut Harel won the
Advanced Class and UAE rider Cristina Calin won the Novice
Class. Congratulations to Turkey which made great efforts in
developing Dressage with the help of FEI Dressage Experts
and the FEI Development Fund.
Group 5: BLR, CRO, HUN, RUS, UKR
After a great success in 2006 the NF of Belarus was
unfortunately not able to participate in the 2007 Edition of
the FEI World Dressage Challenge, which gave the other NFs
a chance to stand out. However, with Hungary’s cancellation
and Russia’s disqualifi cation, only riders from Croatia, Slovenia
and Ukraine actually took part in the competition. With a
total of 193.59 points the Team of Slovenia won fi rst place,
followed by Croatia second and Ukraine third.
Group 6: CZE, EST, LAT, LTU, SVK
The leading trio was composed this year of Czech Republic,
Estonia and Slovakia. Considering the Team of Slovakia
fi nished last in the 2006 Team Competition, their third place
in 2007 shows the great progress of the riders. With a score
of 62.13 %, Latvian rider Atina Lapina won the Prix St-Georges
Class, therefore allowing her Team to fi nish fourth.
Group 7: BOT, KEN, NAM, SWZ, ZAM, ZIM
With a victory in the Prix St-Georges and the Children’s Class,
Zimbabwe riders took the lead in the Team Competition
followed by Namibia in second and Botswana in third.
Namibian rider Sumari Piepmeyer won the Advanced Class and
Peter Kay from Swaziland the Novice Class. It is encouraging
to see a rider from Swaziland winning the Advanced Class. It is
important to mention that Swaziland has put lots of efforts in
the education of their coaches with already 2 FEI courses for
coaches organised in 2004 and 2006.
Group 8: INA, IND, MAS, SIN, THA
Indonesian riders were very successful in Group 8, winning
the Advanced and Children Classes as well as the Team
competition. The Prix St-Georges Class was won by Malaysian
rider Sandra Baljeu on Mount William Perelin with a score
of 67.88 %, whereas the Novice Class was won by Amanda
Harvey from Singapore riding Laser Fella.
Group 9: CHN, HKG, KOR, NZL, TPE
This year’s FEI World Dressage Challenge fi nished on 22
November 2007 in Group 9 with the victory of the New
Zealand Team after winning three out of the four Classes.
Indeed, the New Zealand riders faced serious competition in
the Advanced Class which was won by Chinese rider Cai Qiao
followed by his compatriot Huang Lixing who fi nished second
and Soo Jin Lee from Korea took the third place.
Group 10: ANT, BAR, BER, HAI, JAM, TRI
This year again, the team competition was won by Barbados
followed by Trinidad & Tobago second and Jamaica third; Haiti
fi nished fourth and Bermuda fi fth. Unfortunately, Antigua
only entered competitors in two levels and therefore was
unable to put together a team. Barbados riders won both the
Prix St-Georges and the Advanced Class, whereas Jamaican
riders won the Novice and the Children’s Class.
AFFILIATIONSThe 2007 General Assembly approved the affi liation as full
member of Albania (ALB) in Group I, Cambodia (CAM) in
Group VIII and Yemen (YEM) in Group VII. Annual subscriptions
for all NFs belonging to Level 6 was established at CHF 250.

ROLEX AND HORSESPORT
The Rolex partnership with FEI entered its fourth phase at the
end of 2007, when Rolex became a category sponsor to the
Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games 2010.
Indeed the collaboration with the Swiss watchmaker Rolex, now
an integral part of the FEI’s commercial landscape, began with
the launch of the Television Magazine “FEI Equestrian World” in
2006 and has considerably progressed over the course of 2007.
Some of the latest developments include a new dawn in the
history of the FEI World Cup™ Jumping Series which saw Rolex
not only renew their title sponsorship for the Final but also
extend their partnership with the FEI to include the Western
European League.
Their commitment to the sport and its protagonists was further
strengthened when Rolex became the title sponsor of the FEI
World Jumping Riders’ Rankings in July now known as the
“Rolex Rankings”.
This structured and comprehensive approach has proved
to be extremely fruitful; namely the highly successful FEI
Television Magazine, which now is in its third year and has
clearly confi rmed its popularity and ability to promote the
many facets of the sport, as well as featuring all eight FEI
disciplines in the programming.
It is undeniable that the FEI’s relationship with Rolex is a valuable
and valued force which will continue to raise the profi le of
equestrian sport, as well as attract other strong brands to the table.
SAMSUNG SUPER LEAGUE WITH FEI
At the end of 2007, Samsung informed the FEI that they would
not renew their sponsorship for another term.
Samsung has been involved with equestrian sport – fi rst with
the international development competition, which has now
evolved into the FEI Jumping and Dressage Challenge, then
the FEI Nations Cup, and fi nally the Samsung Super League
with FEI – for over 20 years.
In today’s challenging commercial environment, cooperation
of this length and quality is exceptional and bears witness
to the interest and commercial potential of horsesport. You
could say they began at the grass roots level and ended with
the most prestigious team competition: the Samsung Super
League with FEI !!
This long-term partnership proved that the FEI and its sponsors
could work hand-in-hand, providing tailor made solutions to
their respective needs and thus confi rms and refl ects one of
the key pillars of the FEI President’s Manifesto, to strengthen
Horse Sport on a global basis and to foster growth for the FEI
commercially as well.
Time has clearly demonstrated, whether it be the substantial
media coverage generated in the written press, on television or
over the internet that the FEI Super League is a viable commercial
product which yields excellent returns upon investment. This
year alone, the total broadcasting time increased by nearly
30% compared to 2006 with 217 hours in total; the cumulated
audience was about 30M, as for the sponsoring value, over the
past three years it has increased by 100%.
OTHER
ACTIVITIES
2007 WAS INSTRUMENTAL IN ALIGNING THE MANY
OBJECTIVES OF THE FEI COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT,
ENSURING THAT EFFORTS AND DIRECTION ARE
CONCENTRATED IN KEY AREAS.
44 FEI ANNUAL REPORT 2007
The future is, without a doubt, a bright and innovating one –
with new opportunities to be grasped and thresholds to be
met. The FEI is confi dent that the FEI Super League is in good
hands with dedicated and professional organisers and a wide
fan base.
ALLTECH AND THE FEI WORLDEQUESTRIAN GAMES 2010
Since Alltech was signed in June 2006, preparations for
the Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games to be held at
the Kentucky Horse Park (USA) from 25 September to 10
October 2010 have been full steam ahead.
Alltech has been extremely active in their outlook and
presence while the response in Kentucky and the USA, in
terms of volunteers and interest has been overwhelming.
With over 35 % of trade show booths already booked; ¾ of
the volunteers signed up; the unveiling of two huge clocks
in downtown Lexington serving as an offi cial count down to
the games, or even the fact that the merchandising program
has already exceeded total sales in comparison to the 2006
– previsions are defi nitely pointing towards unprecedented
Games.
Indeed, the 2010 Games are expected to have a statewide
economic impact of USD 150 million and it is expected
that more than 600’000 spectators will attend the 16-day
competition. This is not entirely surprising as 2010 will the
fi rst edition of the FEI World Equestrian Games to be held
outside of Europe, as well as the fi rst time all eight disciplines
of the FEI are held concurrently at a single site!
HSBC
Following negotiations throughout the course of 2007, in
January 2008 the FEI teamed up with new partner HSBC,
the world’s local bank. As the world’s governing body for
horsesport, the FEI can now count on HSBC as the fi nancial
services partner of the FEI.
Headquartered in London, the HSBC Group is one of the
largest banking and financial services in the world. The
Group has over 125 million customers, and around 10’000
offices in 83 countries and territories in Europe, the Asia-
Pacific region, the Americas, the Middle east and Africa.
The FEI looks forward to an innovating and evolving
relationship with new partner HSBC within the fascinating
realm of horsesport and all it has to offer.
FEI ANNUAL REPORT 2007 45
FEI LICENSING
The FEI Licensing activities are progressing at good pace. The
videogame My Horse & Me, launched in late November 2007
(Europe) and February 2008 (USA & Australia), has been well
received by consumers. The sales fi gures are very positive and
in line with the set objectives.
The FEI is particularly satisfi ed with the fact that 21 National
Federations are involved in the project and contribute much
of this success to the level of cooperation reached.
The game features the most accurate horse models and
animations ever in a video game, alongside deeply rewarding
gameplay set in a variety of enchanting environments. In
addition, My Horse & Me for PC, Nintendo DS and Wii, is
the fi rst game of its kind to offer players a choice of fi rst-
person as well as third person views while riding, putting
players right in the saddle for an unbeatably authentic riding
simulation.
A second edition of the game is planned to be released in
October 2008. The new version of the game will have an
exciting story line, feature more sections such as veterinarian
and include additional equestrian disciplines to increase
the attractivity of the game. In line with the fi rst game, the
FEI will continue to involve the National Federations in the
commercialisation process of My Horse & Me 2.
Other exciting licensing activities with new partners are
currently under discussions.
BRANDING
FEI’s branding activities progressed in 2007 and helped to
signifi cantly increase the value of the FEI corporate and
related competition brands.
A new pictogram for Para-Equestrian Dressage was created in
view of the Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games where Para-
Equestrian Dressage will be fully taking part in the games.
The selected design conveys the view of the FEI’s desire for
integration, it defi nes the difference between Dressage and
Para-Equestrian Dressage and does not draw attention to a
specifi c disability.
PUBLIC RELATIONS2007 presented many interesting challenges to the FEI
Communications Department namely with the media
accreditation for the 2008 Olympic Games and the promotion
and media operations at FEI Championships. Furthermore,
in terms of press coverage, the number and variety of FEI
newsletters increased as did the journalistic support to the
Samsung Super League with FEI.
Media accreditation for the 2008 Olympic Games
Given the exceptional situation of horsesport at the 2008
Olympic Games, it was decided that accreditation for the
specialised equestrian press (written press only) would be
handled though the FEI and not the NOCs as is usually the case.
The usual quota was increased to ensure the sport received
the best and most comprehensive possible coverage.
The application process opened on 14 May and closed on
8 July. Some 170 applications were received and were all
carefully checked and subsequently presented to the IOC,
resulting with one hundred and ten accreditations being
granted according to objective criteria.
FEI Championships
Some 20 FEI Championships took place in the period from
March to mid-September 2007. The FEI Communications staff
granted active support providing the events’ press offi cers
with guidelines for the set up of media facilities, publishing
and communicating their accreditation forms as well as
material for their press kits. A more in-depth service (reference
background information, FEI press kits, logistical support)
was set up around the FEI European Jumping, Dressage and
Eventing championships. Eight of the 20 championships
were attended by FEI Communications Staff and integrally
reported on. Support was also organised for the remaining
championships with the help of journalists specialising in the
relevant discipline.
An online photo catalogue where pictures in high and
low resolution could be downloaded was launched for
the professional media in order to encourage the use of
photographs in the written press. To this effect, photographs
from all the championships were posted during and
immediately following competition. This new service provided
by the FEI was met with immediate success – with several
thousand requests being made with 500 being granted access
to legitimate media and editorial purposes.
FEI Newsletters
The volume of news released since January 2007 tripled as
compared to previous years – 90 Press News, 65 issues of
In the Spotlight newsletter, 15 Alltech FEI World Equestrian
Games news and 15 Olympic news.
46 FEI ANNUAL REPORT 2007
As a result, the number of unique visitors to www.horsesport.
org increased from an average of 55’794 per month in 2006
to 71’376 in 2007.
Journalistic Support to FEI Series
The reports released immediately following each of the
qualifi ers from the various FEI series has proved to be
tremendously successful with the number of subscribers
increasing from year to year. The service has been expanded
compared to previous years to include In the Spotlight
features and pictures for download from the FEI online
photo catalogue.
Media relations
The level of interest media have shown in various topics and
especially those related to doping and positive medication
cases has been high. In order to demystify and clarify all the
processes involved, a proactive approach, especially in high
profi le doping case, is gradually being put in place. As a result,
good relations have been developed with many members
of the press and the relevant journalists are informed in a
proactive way about the cases that are of particular interest
to them.
Enquiries from Media/Public
Enquiries from the media and general public have increased
signifi cantly, with an average of 50 per month.

Notes to the fi nancial statements
1. These fi nancial 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
is considered that these proceeds, which are only received once every four years, represent a core fi nancing of FEI both for
the year of the Games and the succeeding three years.
The contribution is allocated initially to the IOC Contribution Fund. In the year of the Games, a unique amount is fi rst
credited to revenues from the Fund equal to the net costs incurred by FEI for its participation at the Games. The balance is
credited to revenues in four equal annual amounts commencing in the year of the Games.
Any contributions received after the initial contribution are added to the balance of the Fund and also credited to revenue
over the remaining years of the quadrenium.
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 freely available for the use of FEI.
5. FEI fi nancial statements are audited by PriceWaterhouseCoopers, Lausanne, Switzerland.

* not applicable. Used to show that no international events were organised, either because the NF did not exist or was not affi liated to the FEI.
(1) In 2003, Yugoslavia changed its name to become Serbia and Montenegro (SCG). The Yugoslavian NF ceased to be a member of the FEI in 1993. It was formally re-affi liated at
the 2002 General Assembly. In 2006, Serbia & Montenegro became independent and Serbia (SRB) retained the affi liation.
