FEI Badges of Honour
FEI Badges of Honour FEI Badges of Honour are awarded to riders of Show Jumping, Eventing and Dressage in recognition of their contribution to the sport according to criteria set by the FEI. CLICK HERE to download criteria. Horse Sport Ireland have reviewed results for the years 2000-2009 and have developed a provisional list of riders that we have established are due these badges of honour. These individual riders have been written to and Horse Sport Ireland intends to make a presentation of the FEI Badges of Honour later in 2010.
If you do not receive a letter within the next week and consider that you may be eligible for one of these prestigious awards, please contact Anne Chanarin on Email: annechanarin@gmail.com before Friday 30th July with your relevant participation records which we will verify with the FEI. There may be a number of riders who achieved the necessary results prior to 2000.
Please be advised that existing medal of honour recipients can receive one complementary ticket for each session of the discipline they have medaled in for the Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games 2010 in Kentucky. Tickets for other disciplines may be available for a fee.
