Equestrian events at the 2020 Summer Olympics – Qualification

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

B
Quality score:Good

The 200 quota places for equestrian at the 2020 Summer Olympics were divided between the three disciplines (75 for jumping, 65 for eventing, and 60 for dressage). The 2020 Olympics were postponed to 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] Teams in each discipline consisted of three horse and rider pairs; any NOC that qualified a team (20 teams for jumping, 15 each for eventing and dressage) also received 3 entries in the individual competition for that discipline. NOCs that did not qualify teams could earn one individual place in dressage and jumping, and up to two individual places in eventing, for a total of 15 entries in jumping and dressage and 20 for eventing. Teams qualify primarily through specific competitions (World Equestrian Games and continental tournaments), while individuals qualify through rankings. The host nation, Japan, automatically qualified a team in each discipline.[2][3][4]
