Equestrian sports made their debut in the Summer Olympics in 1900. Back then only Calvary / military officers were allowed to compete. It was removed for a short period and resumed in 1912. Civilian riders were allowed to compete beginning in the 1952 games and is one of very few sports that allow men and women to compete against each other on equal footing.
