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.

Invitation System for CSI 3*+ 4* events in Groups I and II (2006 season)

Section 1 OC Invitations

Maximum 15% of the total riders invited can be invited as wild cards by the Organising Committee through their NFs (these riders may consist of foreign and/or home riders).

Section 2 Home Riders

The number of home riders must not exceed 50% of the total number of riders invited. The minimum number of home riders must not be less than 35% of the total number of riders invited.

The NF/OC decides on the exact percentage for this section, which must be printed in the schedule.

If the home nation does not fill its quota, the remaining places are filled in accordance with the conditions established for invitation of riders in section 4.

Depending on the number of home riders competing internationally, the number of home riders may be increased to 60% of the total number of riders at the event. This may only be done upon receipt of a request from the NF concerned and may or may not be granted at the discretion of the Manager of the FEI Jumping Department.

Section 3 FEI Invitations for Foreign Riders

The FEI has the right to nominate two riders from developing NFs and / or overseas NFs by the deadline date established for nominated entries. The maximum number of times a rider can be nominated during the same season for this group is three. Vacant places under this section are filled in accordance with the conditions established for invitation of riders in section 4.

Section 4 Foreign Riders

The remaining participants are invited by the Organising Committee through their NF’s according to the following procedure:

4.1 Participants in this section must be selected from the top 250 on the riders’ world ranking list established by the FEI three months prior to the event. Each Organising Committee must print in the schedule the number of the list which applies for the invitation of riders.

4.2 At least seven foreign NFs must be represented by riders in this section.

4.3 In this section specifically named riders can be invited. Nevertheless, NFs are free to send the riders of their choice providing that they are of a similar level. However, if an invited named rider, who is within the top 20 on the riders’ world ranking list, does not accept the invitation another rider will be invited by the Organising Committee in accordance with the conditions established for invitation of riders in section 4.1. Disputes will be settled by the FEI Jumping Department.

4.4 If an NF is invited to send participants but decides not to participate, another NF is selected by the Organising Committee in accordance with the conditions established for invitation of riders in section 4.1

4.5 OCs which cannot obtain enough riders from the top 250 on the World Ranking list may invite riders up to the number required by continuing down the World Ranking list until the desired number of riders is obtained. This must be done in descending order. These cannot be pay cards.

Section 5 Six Riders below top 250

Each event is allowed to invite up to 6 riders below the 250th place on the World Ranking list. These places are open to home and/or foreign riders by invitation. This can only be done with FEI approval by requesting with schedule approval. These riders may be required to qualify through the B Tour for the A Tour competitions at the same event. These riders cannot be pay cards. These riders, if the OC decides to invite them, must be in addition to the total number of riders invited. In exceptional cases the Manager of the FEI Jumping Department may increase the number of invitations of riders outside the top 250 on the riders’ world ranking list

There are no restrictions on Organising Committees in relation to the invitation of participants for amateur owner competitions and riders specifically invited for small tour competitions only. However, the total number of horses in the small tour must not exceed 100.

The following fines will be imposed on Organising Committees not respecting the above procedure: 1st offence CHF 20’000.-; 2nd offence CHF 40’000.- ; at the 3rd offence, the event will not be permitted to take place. These fines will be payable directly by the Organising Committees concerned to the FEI.
