Competition format
The team and individual eventing competitions used the same results. Eventing consisted of a dressage test, a cross-country test, and a jumping test. The competitor with the best total score (fewest penalty points) won. The individual scores were summed to give a team score.
- Dressage: The eventing competition featured a dressage test. Five judges gave scores.
- Cross-country: The cross-country test had five phases.
- Phase A: 7.2 km roads. Time allowed was 30 minutes (240 m/min).
- Phase B: 3.6 km steeplechase. Time allowed was 6 minutes (600 m/min).
- Phase C: 14.4 km roads. Time allowed was 60 minutes (240 m/min).
