Olympic Rings The Olympic symbolfive interlocked ringsrepresents the union of the five original major continents (Africa, America, Asia, Australia and Europe) and the meeting of the athletes from throughout the world at the Olympic Games. The five colors of the rings from left to right are blue, black and red across the top and yellow and green along the bottom. The colors of the rings are thought to have been chosen because at least one of these colors can be found in the flag of every nation. Olympic Flag The Olympic Flag has a plain white background with no border. In the center are the five interlocked Olympic rings. The flag was presented by Baron Pierre de Coubertin in 1914 at the Olympic Congress is 1914, celebrating the 20th anniversary of the founding of the International Olympic Committee. It was flown that year at Alexandria, Greece, but made its Olympic debut in 1920 at Antwerp. The "primary" Olympic flag was thus known as "the Antwerp flag." In 1984, Seoul presented a new Olympic flag (as the old was getting quite worn) to the IOC, which was first flown at the 1988 Olympic Games. At the Closing Ceremonies of the Olympic Games, the mayor of the Olympic host city presents the Olympic flag to the mayor of

How It Works Walking the Course Scoring The first time a refusal occurs, the penalty is three faults; six faults are given for the second, and the third constitutes elimination. A penalty of four faults is incurred each time a fence is knocked down and the penalty for the horse touching the water at a water jump is also four faults. Penalties can also be incurred for exceeding the time allowed to complete the course. The winner is the horse and rider combination with the fewest jumping and time penalties. Frequently, several horses complete the course without penalty and advance to a jump-off over a shortened course. In the jump-off, the same scoring rules apply, except that in the case of equal faults, the horse with the fastest time will be declared the winner. Regulations Governing Show Jumping International show jumping competitions are governed by the Federation Equestre Internationale, which sets forth rules and regulations.

Host Cities of the Summer Olympic Games by Harvey Abrams, BS, MAT, Ph.d/abd. Introduction The modern Olympic Games are always hosted by a city - not by a country. The first Olympic Games of the Modern Era were hosted by Athens (Greece). The most recent Olympic Games were hosted by Sydney (Australia) in 2000. The next Olympic Games will be hosted by Athens in 2004. Host Cities and the Calender known as the OLYMPIAD The ancient Olympic Games were always in the same place OLYMPIA a sacred city in western Greece known as ELIS . The Games were a religious event, a FESTIVAL that honored the Greek God ZEUS . The ancient Games were hosted by the ELIANS who were the guardians of the sanctuary to Zeus. They tried and succeeded for a few hundred years to be neutral , that is, un-allied to other Greek city-states, similar to modern day Switzerland. But in the fifth century BCE (480 BCE) they allied themselves with Sparta and warred against their neighbors. The Elians lost control of the sanctuary to the Spartans, then to other Greek city-states, then finally to the conquering Romans. In 80 BCE the Roman general Sulla moved the Olympic Games to Rome and only a single race for boys was held at Olympia, the stade race . But then Sulla died and the next Games returned to Olympia in 76 BCE. The ancient Olympic Games and the modern Olympic Games are QUADRENNIAL

EQUESTRIANISM REPORT Back to NEWS Back to EQUESTRIANISM NEWS Sunday, October 1 Upset sees jump-off for medals Jenny MacArthur From Jenny MacArthur in Sydney Nobody could accuse the Olympic showjumping event of running to form. In a drama-filled final day at the windswept Horsley Park arena, Holland gained their first Olympic showjumping individual gold medal when Jeroen Dubbeldam, on Sjiem, a horse that had never even won a grand prix, relegated his countryman Albert Voorn, on Lando, to the silver medal after a three-horse jump-off. Khaled Al Eid, a former pupil of John Whitaker, brought Saudi Arabia their first ever Olympic equestrian medal when he and Khasm Al Aan, the horse on which he was runner-up to Whitaker in the British Grand Prix at Hickstead in July, took the bronze. In a startling end to the competition, world champion Rodrigo Pessoa, of Brazil, and the clear favourite, crashed out of the contest when his horse Baloubet du Rouet had three refusals at Fence 8a, an oxer. His exit prompted the jump-off among the three riders on four faults. The unexpected line-up of medal winners prompted an emotional press conference, with Dubbeldam, a 27-year-old riding instructor, and Voorn, 44, a former three-day-event rider, both in tears. Voorn spoke for both of them: “This is a dream come true. One very good rider said that neither of us were good enough to succeed here. Now we have both won medals.”

EQUESTRIANISM REPORT Back to NEWS Back to EQUESTRIANISM NEWS Monday, October 2 Wanted: riders with attitude Jenny MacArthur From Jenny MacArthur in Sydney While Britain basked in her best Olympic Games since 1924 - with many sports showing a prompt return for their lottery funding - the equestrian teams, with the notable exception of the silver medal-winning three-day-event team, all underperformed. The dressage team, which had hoped to reach the top five finished eighth (out of nine). The showjumpers, who had realistic expectations of a medal, also finished eighth. The individual showjumping contest on Sunday - in which Geoff Billington’s 24th place on It’s Otto was the best of the three British riders - concluded a dismal second week. "There are lessons to be learnt - we need to go home and analyse what went wrong here and put in place a strategy for Athens" John Tulloch, the outgoing President of the British Equestrian Federation, said. Jane Kidd, the chairman of the dressage selectors, who had thought that “the medal zone” would be within the dressage riders’ grasp after the structured training programme that lottery money has enabled them to introduce also spoke of the need for a “re-think”. No blame can be attached to the management and preparation of the horses. The extra funding had contributed to the “five-star” comfort which the horses had enjoyed on the flight and tip-top veterinary care throughout the build-up to the Games - with all the most up-to-date equipment. The training facilities at the Horsley Park equestrian centre were second to none. Mary King, who had been one of the favourites for a medal in the individual dressage competition but finished eighth, said that her horse, Star Appeal, felt ready to compete within a week of arriving.
