War in the Ukraine
Statement from the ETPA

Russia, together with Belarus, has started a war of aggression against Ukraine. This is a violation of the order of the United Nations. The war of aggression brings the world to the edge of nuclear war. It causes suffering for people and animals* in the affected areas.

Furthermore, it causes hunger crises that affect people and animals far beyond these areas. The vast majority of the members of the United Nations have condemned the war and its initiators. FEI and IOC – as well as many other global sports federations – have banned Russia and Belarus. The FEI recognises the ITPF as the global governing body for the equestrian sport of tent pegging. The ITPF wants to integrate tent pegging into the Olympic canon. The ETPA is a member of the ITPF. Russia and Belarus are members of the ITPF and thus automatically members of the ETPA too, even though they have not been active here.

In the face of the war of aggression, the board of the ETPA has decided to suspend Russia’s and Belarus’s automatic membership for the time that peace is violated. The ETPA does this with a heavy heart since we love our friends, the Russian and Belarussian athletes like all other tent peggers. However, they represent states whose acts of war the ETPA objects to.

* footnote: We are a sport which could not exist without the horse. At present, there are around 100,000 horses in the Ukraine who have been caught up in the invasion. The food and bedding supply chain has stopped. Some owners have been forced to set their horses free in forests to fend for themselves because they must flee their homes and have no alternative option. European equestrian national governing bodies have been fundraising to send food and bedding as part of the humanitarian convoys to the Polish border. The invasion has significantly impacted the equestrian community of the Ukraine. As horse-lovers, we owe it to them to stand alongside in support.

Riders from European Tent Pegging Association in Abu Dhabi http://tentpegging.eu/riders-from-european-tent-pegging-association-in-abu-dhabi/ Sun, 24 Feb 2019 13:48:32 +0000 http://tentpegging.eu/?p=299

Riders from European Tent Pegging Association in Abu Dhabi

Riders of the European Tent Pegging Association were represented by both the British and the German team at the international tent pegging competition in Abu Dhabi, which took place from 19 February to 24 February 2019.

The international tent pegging competition was hosted by the United Arab Emirates at the Boudheib International Endurance Village at HH Sheikh Sultan Bin Zayed Al Nahyan’s invitation. The British team was represented by five equestrians, the German team by four. Angela Breme, Kim Möbus, Steffen Kukral and Christian Dietzel competed for the German team. The British team consisted of Jerry Watkins, Christopher Doyle Marron, Jenna Copley, Bradley Clifford and Paul Brown (reserve). They competed against teams from the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Morocco. The horses that were ridden were the regional Arabian stallions, which are characterized by their ambitious nature as well as their high speed. The Arabian stallions were assigned by lot. The different events were classical sword and lance events Individual and Section as well as overhead targets and Indian file.

The British team reached the fourth place with the following scores: Bradley Clifford (114 points), Jenna Copley (70), Christopher Doyle Marron (66.5), and Jerry Watkins (64). Bradley Clifford was in the leading group of all participants. Even though Germany only scored fifth place, their equestrians Angela Breme and Christian Dietzel belonged to the best non-professional riders of the competition. What deserves particular attention is the fact that nineteen-year-old junior equestrian Kim Möbus attended her first international competition in Abu Dhabi and was thus able to gain her first abroad experiences. This is how the German riders performed: Angela Breme (86.5), Christian Dietzel (76), Steffen Kukral (51) and Kim Möbus (14).The overall winners of the competition were the hosts from the United Arab Emirates.

The Foundation of the
European Tent Pegging Association

The European Tent Pegging Association (ETPA) was founded to support and promote the equestrian sport of Tent Pegging in Europe, which currently HAS GREATER PARTICIPANT FIGURES IN ARAB NATIONS, INDIA, AUSTRALIA AND SOUTH AFRICA.

The foundation was the decision of the national Tent Pegging associations of Germany, Great Britain, the Netherlands and Norway in December 2018. The official ETPA foundation ceremony took place at the General Assembly of the International Tent Pegging Federation (ITPF) on January 29th 2019 in Muscat, the capital of Oman. The objective is not only to popularise the former cavalry sport in the four member states, but also to support arising Tent Pegging groups in other European countries to set up and develop their national associations. In doing so, the ETPA enables other motivated and interested riders to partake in this great sport.
