    Vaulting Championships 2024 updates regarding Certificates of Capability and Squad Qualifications

    As we prepare for the Vaulting Championships 2024, we would like to inform you of several important updates and requirements.

    Certificates of Capability
    If you have not yet completed the Certificate of Capability, please use the updated template available on the FEI Vaulting Main Events webpage on Inside.FEI.org. This document has been revised to highlight the new qualification requirements for Squads and Horses. For detailed information on the Qualification Criteria, please refer to the Vaulting Qualification criteria 2024.

    Squad Qualification Criteria
    Additionally, please also take note of the following important information regarding the new Squad Qualification Criteria:

    • It is the National Federation’s responsibility to ensure that the Squad meets the minimum qualification criteria on the day of the competition. For instance, if only four athletes on the nominated entries list meet the qualification requirements and the reserve squad athletes do not, the squad will not be allowed to participate if one of the qualified members is unable to compete, as only three members would then meet the qualification criteria.

    Deadlines for the FEI Vaulting World Championship for Seniors and the FEI Vaulting European Championships for Young Vaulters and Juniors
    Nominated Entries Deadline: 17 June
    Definite Entries Deadline: 1 July

    All documents must be sent to the FEI Vaulting Department by the nominated entry date.

    Should you have any questions or require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact the FEI Vaulting Department.

    Last update of the FEI Tack, Equipment & Dress Database (FEI Tack App) before the Olympic & Paralympic Games in Paris 2024

    Please be informed that the next update of the FEI Tack, Equipment & Dress Database (FEI Tack App) will be released after the Easter holidays, on 8 April 2024.

    Further to feedback received from numerous Athletes and Officials, who are seeking clarity regarding the use of tack and equipment during the Olympic & Paralympic Games in Paris 2024, the FEI agreed that this would be the last update of the FEI Tack App prior to the Games. The temporary pause of updates to the FEI Tack App will be applied to all FEI Disciplines, including non-Olympic Disciplines.

    Following the conclusion of the Olympic & Paralympic Games in Paris 2024, the updates shall resume on every first Monday of the month, as per the usual process.

    Vaulting Championships Qualification Requirements 2024

    We would like to remind the Vaulting Community that as per Article 703 of the FEI Vaulting rules 2024; new qualification requirements for the FEI Vaulting Championships* 2024 are in place for Squads and Horses:

    1. Qualification for FEI Championships - National Federations will be responsible for ensuring that their Individual Vaulters, Pas de-Deux Vaulters, Squad Vaulters and Horses meet the qualification requirements as laid down below. Certificates of Capability, providing proof of qualification results must be sent by each NF to reach the FEI no later than the closing date for Nominated Entries.

    *Please find here, the Vaulting Qualification criteria 2024.

    The Technology and Sport Services department is currently working on the integration of these requirements directly into the FEI Database. However, until this integration has been completed, we advise all athletes and Organising Committees to keep a copy of each of their results as proof of qualification may be requested by the FEI.

    The Vaulting department will keep you updated as soon as further implementation details are available.

    Sport Nationality Change Applications

    In order to streamline and enhance the processing of sport nationality change by the FEI, a new Application Form for Athletes aged over 18 years, is now available on Inside.FEI.org/Sport Nationality. When filled out accurately, this Application Form will enable the FEI to process requests more efficiently by:

    • Reducing the email correspondence regarding the Sport Nationality application,
    • Allowing the applying National Federation to identify and provide from the outset the necessary supporting documents; and
    • Allowing the FEI to identify all regulatory implications of the sport nationality change for the Athlete and inform the applying National Federation accordingly.

    The Sport Nationality Form includes detailed instructions. It can be filled out and signed electronically. It can also be printed, filled in by hand, and scanned before sharing with the FEI. 

    Kindly ensure that going forward all Sport Nationality applications for Athletes aged over 18 years will be submitted to the FEI using this form. Incomplete, unsigned and/or undocumented applications will not be processed by the FEI.
