Tuesday News & Notes from Around the World:

We all know a bit about soft tissue injury in horses: how to prevent it, how to treat it, how much time off to factor in after it happens. But what about our own tendons and ligaments? What does a similar injury mean for a rider? Writer and dressage rider Laura Adriaanse found out firsthand when a potentially torn ACL derailed her best-laid plans for 2023 – and she’s learned a thing or two along the way about herself, too. [A good blog to start your day]

Showjumper Ludger Beerbaum has had a bit of a dampener to the start of his 2023 season. The German rider took a tumble while competing at the Global Champions Tour in Qatar and has broken his leg, requiring a significant surgery and a few new bits of metal to stabilise the whole thing. He’s recovering well now and will no doubt be back in action soon. [Ludger sidelined]

Ever wondered who the folks behind the scenes at USEA are? In their ongoing series, they’re aiming to make sure you can put a face to a name — and this week, you can ‘meet’ the dynamic duo behind the Membership department. [Meet Jennifer and Cindy]

And finally, if you follow Swedish eventer Sofia Sjoborg on Instagram, you’ve probably seen her horses wearing some pretty funky trousers. Those trousers are actually a new device designed to minimise lower-limb swelling, and we’ve got the research behind them for your perusal. [Great if your horse isn’t easily embarrassed]
