Working Group To Submit Report on Warm-Up Guideline to FEI Bureau

The FEI Working Group tasked with expanding current guidelines for Stewards to facilitate clear implementation of the policy on warm-up techniques has finalised its report on guidelines to prevent any form of aggressive riding at FEI events. The completed document will be submitted to the FEI Bureau at its meeting on 15 April. A further update on the proposed warm-up guidelines will then be issued.
 
The working group, chaired by Dressage Committee Chair Frank Kemperman, was made up of Richard Davison (GBR), Rider/Trainer; John P. Roche (IRL), FEI Director Jumping/Stewarding; Jacques Van Daele (BEL), FEI Honorary Dressage Steward General/Judge; Wolfram Wittig (GER), Trainer; and Trond Asmyr (NOR), FEI Dressage and Para Equestrian Dressage Director/Judge. The working group also drew on the expertise of a number of other specialists, including but not limited to the delegates at a round-table conference held in Lausanne on 9 February 2010.
