Beerbaum, four-time Olympic gold medallist and winner of six European golds. Beerbaum
is President of Organising Committee for the European Championship 2021.

In Riesenbeck, the well-being of the horses and their entourage is at the forefront. "We

Beerbaum says. In addition to the modernisation of the entire show grounds, 312
permanent and spacious stalls have been built for the European Championship.

A total of 66 athletes from 23 countries will be competing at the Championship, with 15
nations fielding full teams.

Longines - official timekeeper
Longines has been based at Saint-Imier (SUI) since 1832. Its watchmaking expertise
reflects a strong devotion to Elegance, Tradition and Performance.

It has generations of experience as the official timekeeper at world championships and as
a partner of international sports federations.

Longines’ passion for equestrian sports began in 1878, when a timepiece was made with
a horse and jockey engraved on the watch face. Over the years, the brand has built strong
and long-lasting links with equestrian sports. In 1912, for the first time, the brand was
involved as timekeeper for a show jumping event in Portugal.

Today, Longines’ involvement in equestrian sports includes jumping, endurance and flat
racing. Longines is a member of The Swatch Group S.A., the world’s leading manufacturer
of horological products.

Longines is celebrating its 186th anniversary this year. With an excellent reputation for
creating refined timepieces, the brand, whose emblem is the winged hourglass, has outlets
in over 150 countries. www.longines.com

Format
1st competition: Speed Competition
2nd competition: Team (Rounds 1 & 2 over two days)
3rd competition: Individual (Rounds A & B)

1st competition: Speed Competition
Drawn Order
•      Open to individuals and teams
•      Table C (Faults under Table C are penalised in seconds which are added to the
       time taken to complete the round)

Penalties:
The scores obtained by each competitor will be converted into Championship points by
multiplying the time of each competitor by the coefficient 0.50. The competitor with the
lowest number of points after this conversion will be given zero penalties. The other
competitors will be credited with the number of penalties representing the difference in
points between each of them and the leading competitor.

If a competitor is eliminated or does not complete their round for any reason, they will be
penalised with 20 penalties more than the last-placed competitor who completed the
competition. The addition of 20 penalties is done after each athlete’s time has been
converted into penalties.

2nd competition: Team (2 Rounds)
This competition is open only to the athletes and horses who took part in the 1st
competition: Table A - two different rounds, not against the clock.
Round 1 Starting Order:

Individuals
First to start in Round 1 of the team competition are all individuals. The starting order is
according to the reverse order of individual classification in the 1st competition (Speed
Competition). In case of equality of penalties for any place, competitors retain the same
starting place as in the first competition.

Teams
Following the 1st individual competition, teams are divided into two groups based on the
results of the best three competitors in each team. The first group of teams to start in
Round 1 of the team competition will be teams placed 11th and below. The group with
teams placed first to 10th and those tied for 10th place start last. Teams in each group start
in reverse order of classification resulting from the 1st individual competition. There is a
draw to decide the starting order for teams in case of equality of penalties.

Round 2 Starting Order:

This competition is open to the 50 athletes (which may be increased if there is equality for
50th place) and the 10 best placed teams and those teams equal on penalties for 10th place
after round 1 of the Team Competition: Table A – Different from Round 1, not against the
clock.

Individuals
The starting order of the individuals qualified to compete in Round 2 of the 2nd competition
is set according to the reverse order of the aggregate penalties incurred in the 1st individual
competition, and the first round of the second individual competition. In the case of
competitors with equality of penalties, the score of the first competition will decide their
starting order.

Teams
The starting order of the teams qualified to compete is set according to the reverse order
of total penalties of the best three competitors per team incurred in the 1st individual
competition and the best three competitors per team in the first round of the team
competition. Teams with equality of penalties retain the starting order of the first round.

Classification - Team Placing:
The top 10 teams and those with equality of penalties for 10th place receive their placing
by adding the penalties incurred by the best three competitors in each team in the 1st
competition and the penalties incurred by the three best competitors in each of the two
Rounds of the 2nd competition. The team which has obtained the least number of penalties
will be placed first and declared FEI European Team Champions.

In the event of equality of penalties between teams for first, second and/or third place,
there will be a jump-off against the clock in which all team competitors may take part.

The score in this jump-off is obtained by adding the penalties incurred by the three best
competitors in each team, but in the event of further equality of penalties, the times of
these three competitors in the jump-off added together will decide the winning team as
well as those placed second or third. The score of this jump-off is only to determine the
placing of the teams and will not count towards the final scores of the individual
competitors.

If two jump-offs are required, the jump-off for third place will precede the jump-off for
first and the second place. If, after the jump-off, there is equality of penalties and time
for one of the first three places, the teams concerned will be placed equal.
Teams not qualified for Round 2 of the team competition receive their placing by adding
the penalties incurred by the three best competitors in each team in the first competition
and the penalties incurred by the three competitors in Round 1 of the team competition.

3rd competition: Individual (Rounds A & B):
This 3rd competition is open to the 25 best-placed competitors and horses (including
those with equality of penalties for 25th place): Table A – two different rounds (A and B),
not against the clock with a time allowed.

Starting Order:

Round A
The starting order for Round A will follow the reverse order of penalties incurred in the
first and second competitions, i.e. the 25th qualified will start as number one.

Round B
Round B of the third competition is open to the 12 best placed competitors and horses
according to the cumulative penalties over the 1st and 2nd Competitions and Round A of
the 3rd Competition. In case of competitors with equality of penalties for 12th place, the
result in Round A of the third competition will be the deciding factor. In case of further
equality of penalties, the time of Round A will be used to break the tie.

The starting order for Round B will follow the reverse order of total penalties incurred in
Round A, as well as in the 1st and 2nd competitions. The competitor with the most penalties
will start first; the competitor with the least penalties will start last.

Classification - Individual Placing:
The individual placing is determined by adding together for each competitor the penalties
incurred in the 1st competition, as well as Rounds 1 and 2 of the 2nd competition
(disregarding the penalties incurred in the jump-off if there is one) and Rounds A and B of
the 3rd competition. The competitor with the least penalties will be placed first and declared
the FEI European Champion.

In the event of equality for one of the first three places after Round B of the 3rd
competition, there will be a jump-off against the clock. If two jump-offs are required, the
jump-off for third place will precede the jump-off for first and second place. If after the
jump-off there is equality of penalties and time for one of the first three places,
competitors concerned will be placed equal.

All You Need To Know & Fast Facts
History FEI Jumping European Championships

The history of the FEI Jumping European Championships began in Rotterdam (NED) in
1957 for men, with a separate “Ladies Championship” in Spa (BEL) for women, even
though they already competed side by side at Olympic Games. The male/female division
continued until 1973, well after Dressage and Eventing had combined the events.

Created following a change to the World Championship format, namely to only hold World
Championships every four years with European Championships in between, the first edition
was disappointing, with just eight athletes participating in Rotterdam and nine in Spa. The
main concern was the change of horse final, a format previously also used at World
Championships, but quickly discontinued for the Europeans. By the next edition in 1958,
24 athletes participated in the men’s and 13 in the women’s Championship.

As of 1975, the male and female Championships were united and participation increased
steadily, but it was not until Hickstead (GBR) and 1999 that a woman took the individual
title, France’s Alexandra Ledermann riding Rochet M.

Firsts:
    • The first Jumping European Championships were held in 1957 in Rotterdam (NED).
    • In the first edition eight athletes took part.
    • Individual gold went to Hans Günter Winkler (GER) and Halla.

Defending Champions from 2019:
   - Defending Champions: Martin Fuchs (SUI) and Clooney 51
   - Defending Team Champions: Belgium

Facts & Figures European Jumping

   -   In 2011, the Club de Campo in Madrid (ESP) dug up the grass arena that had
       hosted jumping for 100 years and put down all-weather footing for the European
       Jumping Championship. The grass was put back straight afterwards.

   -   The first female Jumping athlete to claim the European title was France’s Alexandra
       Ledermann in 1999.

   -   In 2009 Juan Carlos Garcia represented Italy at both the Eventing and Jumping
       championships, winning team silver at both.

   -   Another multi-talented horseman was Switzerland’s Bruno Candrian, who won
       team silver and individual bronze at Munich in 1981. He combined Jumping with a
       career as a jockey in the 1970s.

   -   Paul Schockemöhle (GER) and Deister are the only jumping combination to have
       won three individual gold medals, proving invincible between 1981 and 1985.

   -   Michael Whitaker, Jos Lansink and Harvey Smith have all won three European
       jumping medals without ever winning gold, while Alwin Schockemöhle made it
       fourth time lucky in 1975 after a bronze and two silvers.

   -   Between them, British brothers John and Michael Whitaker have won seven
       individual and 19 team European jumping medals.
-   At San Patrignano (ITA) in 2005, Finnish Jumping athlete Sebastian Numminen
      made it to the Championships from the reserve list and got all the way through to
      the individual final with his 16-year-old Cruising son, Sails Away, finishing 18th
      overall.

  -   Dutch Jumping athlete, the late Toon Ebben, won team gold and individual bronze
      in Vienna in 1977 aged 47, but started life as an Eventing groom and began
      competing after grooming at the 1952 Olympic Games. He jumped at top level for
      30 years.

  -   Martin Fuchs became the sixth Swiss rider in the 62-year history of the event to
      claim individual Jumping gold at the Longines FEI European Championship 2019 in
      Rotterdam.

  -   Belgium not only won their first ever Team gold in the history of the FEI European
      Championships in Rotterdam 2019, but also secured their Team slot for the Tokyo
      2020 Olympic Games.

About the FEI
Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI) www.fei.org

The FEI is the world governing body for horse sport recognised by the International
Olympic Committee (IOC) and was founded in 1921. Equestrian sport has been part of the
Olympic movement since the 1912 Games in Stockholm.

The FEI is the sole controlling authority for all international events in the Olympic sports
of Jumping, Dressage and Eventing, as well as Driving, Endurance, Vaulting and Reining.
The FEI became one of the first international sports governing bodies to govern and
regulate global para sport alongside its seven able-bodied disciplines when Para-
Equestrian Dressage joined its ranks in 2006. The FEI now governs all international
competitions for Para-Equestrian Dressage and Para-Driving.
