The Eventing Index

The Eventing Index measures the overall performance and safety of eventing competitions, which combine dressage, cross-country, and jumping. It aggregates data from various events to provide a score indicating how well the sport is progressing, including aspects like rider skill, horse fitness, and safety standards. A higher or more positive index suggests better safety protocols, improved performance, and enhanced competition fairness. It helps organizers, officials, and stakeholders monitor trends, identify areas for improvement, and ensure the sport maintains high standards for both safety and competitiveness.
