The Eventing Dialogue podcast with FEI event riders Sinead Halpin Maynard, Shannon Lilley, and Lynn Symansky aims to build bridges between knowledge and knee jerk reactions, as well as inspire more transparency in the systems that are meant to be the foundation of this sport. The goal of this podcast is to pull the curtain back enough to have a healthy conversation around some complex issues.
In this episode, Sinead, Shannon, and Lynn discuss the controversy surrounding the scheduling of horse trials. They explain how the calendar is decided each year and discuss a few issues with scheduling, location, and the number of events each year. They also discuss outlining a path to championships for the different divisions of horses and riders and creating a level of competition that raises the bar.
