Equestrian Sports

A horse course, i.e. where you learn to ride. It can also be the level at which you enter a showjumping competition. Additionally it could mean the Equites, a hereditary caste of ancient Romans.

Jodhpurs (riding breeches) can be made of any durable fabric, but may have heavier material or leather on the inside of the knee to help hold onto the saddle.

It depends how much you are willing to spend

To elaborate, much of it depends on the level of riding at which you're competing, and how much training you're willing to put into your horse. Showjumping on smaller circuits can be very affordable if you approach it with some common sense and practicality. Ask around at shows about working as a groom in order to learn how to properly turn out a horse for showjumping, as well as how to care for a horse doing things such as properly applying standing and polo wraps with or without liniment. If you learn how to do this before starting your show career, you can save hundreds on grooms and basic veterinary care.

The most important considerations are buying only the essentials and working your way toward more knowledge and connections - this can lead to finding a trainer at a discounted rate if you work for them as a stable hand at shows!

Historians believe the English first had horses in around 700,000 BC. When horses were first discovered, they were hunted. They began domesticating and riding horses around 2,500 BC.

That's a personal choice, but a lot of guys find it provides good support without the restriction of tight underwear. Since it keeps things in place, it can also help prevent injury in active competition.

I personally have never actually rode a horse, non other than a mere Mule, but, I am currently on a tennis team. Tennis is a very fun sport, shockingly not as boring as shown on tv. It's a good workout, keeps you active, and the feeling of knowing you hit an amazing shot just makes all of your work worth it.

So, I guess Tennis is better, in my opinion, so if you really want to play one of the two, I would highly suggest going with your gut on it. :) Hope I helped!

Some of the difficult equestrian jumps are most likely the ones that have a high fence. The fences are made to collapse, in case a horse were to get stuck jumping over it.

Polo on horseback is called just that. Polo.

Actually, if your talking about western stuff they're called cowgirls.

The female rider is an equestrienne ( male term: equestrian, all are called equestrians. In the Netherlands a female rider is called an "amazone".

I have a box of cards and envelopes for each of the 1984 olympic games with stamps to match the game.

You mean with horses? I am an equestrian myself and it isnt exactly played. We do all different things, Jumping, Barrel racing, English, Western.

Jockeys normally get 10% of the winnings for a race. So, for example, if they win a normal race and the winning prize is $10,000, then they'd get $1,000 for that day. If the race is a $25,000 prize, they'd get $2,500, and so on. Now, for a big race like the Kentucky Derby where the prize for 1st place can be around $2 million, the jockey's portion would be $200,000.

Before there were automobiles and trains, people had only a few options for travel. They could walk or take a boat. If neither of these were practical, they traveled using horse power- either by carriage (cart, etc.) or by riding. Someone riding alone to a destination would often take shortcuts through forests, fields, and other non-road locations. These areas were rich in both natural and man-made obstacles, many of which might be jumped if the rider was in a hurry or looking for sport. In Europe this evolved into the equine sport of cross-country.

Cross-country also has roots in fox hunting. This primarily English noblemen's sport included following a pack of hounds on horseback in pursuit of a fox. The hounds would lead through fences, over logs, forcing the riders to jump anything in their path. Although this sport no longer exists in it's original form (for obvious reasons when one considers the poor fox), it inspired several sports including Steeplechase, Cross-country, and a variety of tracking games involving both dogs and horses.

The small ring is 66 feet by 131 feet. The smaller sized areanas, however, are no longer used in rated North America shows.

The standard ring is 66 feet by 197 feet and is used for dressage and eventing tests.

The United States has never won a dressage gold medal in the Olympics.

In team dressage, the US has won 1 silver (1948) and 6 bronze (1932, 1976, 1992, 1996, 2000, 2004). In individual dressage, the US has won 1 bronze (Hiram Tuttle in 1932).

To pick up the correct canter lead, first ensure your horse is balanced and moving forward in a good rhythm. Apply a slight outside leg aid behind the girth to encourage the horse to engage its hindquarters while using your inside leg at the girth to support the movement. As you ask for the canter, gently squeeze with your legs and give a light rein aid on the inside. The correct lead will be determined by the leg that is positioned forward on the horse's inside.
