How Do I Become an Equine Practitioner?

In order to achieve the accuracy and precision of the horses used by chariots on the battlefield in ancient times, the horses were often trained in various skills and coordination, and later developed into equestrian competitions. The equestrian competition entered the Olympic Games for the first time in 1900, when there was only one obstacle course event. In 1912, the equestrian competition was expanded to include dressage, obstacle course and three-day race. Since 1952, female jockeys have been allowed to participate in the equestrian events of the Olympic Games. Equestrian has also become the only event for men and women in the Olympic Games. As a team, horses and runners will win medals and places together.

    Hong Kong Olympic Equestrian Events
    When we applied for the 2008 Olympic Games, we put the equestrian events at the rural racecourse in Shunyi. After many twists and turns, after considering various factors, we decided to switch to Hong Kong. However, this decision was not smooth sailing. It took more than 7 months before and after. This involved the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee, the Hong Kong Olympic Committee of China, the International Olympic Committee and the International Equestrian Federation. One did not agree with the equestrian competition. It cannot be relocated to Hong Kong. Among them, the Beijing Olympic Group and the Hong Kong Olympic Committee of China are naturally active promoters, the International Olympic Committee is the middle party, and such a plan has been opposed by the International Equestrian Federation. The chairman of the International Equestrian Federation is a female or A royal princess and sister of the King of Spain, Princess Bilal. Bilal and her international equestrian federation have made the journey to Hong Kong a little easier.
    Not only that, but also required the game venue to establish a disease-free area within a radius of 35 square kilometers a few years in advance. In other words, the original plan was to filter around the rural racecourse in Shunyi.
    The concept of a disease-free area is that all residents in this area must move away, and no animals can appear in this area, including rats above and below ground. Such a requirement is very difficult for Beijing in just a few years. It is faced with a large number of demolition. It is even more difficult to construct an epidemic-free area after the land is vacated. Moreover, China has not yet Experience. This also brought about a problem: funding, how much money such a huge project requires, many people can't imagine, and after the successful bidding of the Olympic Games, Beijing put forward the principle of diligent and frugal Olympics in time, the cost of equestrian venue construction is expensive The cost naturally does not match the diligence of hosting the Olympics.
    What to do is to find a proper way to solve the problem. Prior to this, Mr. Huo Yingdong, who has long been committed to the development of sports in Hong Kong, and his son, Mr. Huo Zhenting, the Chairman of the Hong Kong Olympic Committee of China, have always told the International Olympic Committee and Beijing that they hope that Can host an Olympic game. In this way, Hong Kong has entered Beijing's sight. For Beijing and Hong Kong, hosting the Beijing Olympic Games together is of great positive significance. Objectively speaking, the level of horse racing in Hong Kong is at the highest level in the world, and the foundation for equestrian sports is relatively good. The venue for holding equestrian competitions only needs to rebuild the existing venue to meet the requirements, which greatly saves money.
    Although both Beijing and Hong Kong are willing to actively promote this, the decision is at the International Equestrian Federation. After the successful bid, the BOCOG submitted a report to the International Equestrian Federation stating that the equestrian events of the Beijing Olympics will be held in Beijing. The quarantine problems faced are in accordance with the regulations of the equestrian competition. It also notified Hong Kong's intention to host an equestrian competition. What was unexpected was that the International Equestrian Federation opposed it.
    So why does FIFA disagree with this decision? On the one hand, it is because the FEMA has been worried that ex-situ Hong Kong will be separated from the Olympic family, which is very unfavorable to the development of equestrian events, not to mention that equestrian events are aristocratic projects and are not easy to promote. This is not the first time that equestrian competitions have been held outside the host city. At the 1956 Melbourne Olympics in Australia, the Australian equestrian competitions were forced to be relocated to Stockholm, Sweden because of the relatively high quarantine requirements for entry horses at that time. On the other hand, the International Horse Federation believes that if the equestrian competition is held in Hong Kong, the equestrian athletes will lose the opportunity to communicate with athletes from all over the world. They cannot fully enjoy the services of the Olympic family, the Olympic atmosphere, and Opportunities for athletes from all over the world will not enjoy the joy of the Olympic family, which will make equestrian away from people and the Olympic Games, which is not conducive to the development of equestrian sports in the world, let alone a 13 Billion people in China.
