Disciplines and Competition Formats

Equestrian sport in Ukraine includes various disciplines that combine endurance, skill, and spectacle. The most popular among them are:

• Dressage – precise execution of commands, smooth movements, and harmony between horse and rider;
• Show Jumping – navigating an obstacle course within a set time;
• Endurance – a long-distance marathon where the rider’s tactical skills and the horse’s stamina are crucial;
• Eventing – a combination of dressage, cross-country, and show jumping. Competitions take place over several days, making the tournament highly spectacular.

Equally captivating are horse races in Ukraine – a high-speed competition that laid the foundation for many other equestrian disciplines.

Who Can Participate in Tournaments

Equestrian performances are spectacular competitions in which both professional athletes and amateurs can participate. There are tournaments for adults and children. You can apply through federation websites or directly at riding clubs. If you plan to take part, the Equicor team will assist with all necessary documents and preparation for the competition.

To be admitted to the tournament, both the rider and the horse undergo a preliminary selection. All animals must also be examined by a veterinarian.

They also provide advice on handling unexpected situations and maintaining the right psychological mindset during competitions.
