I'm not "up" on it, Kerry, but as I last understood it, one member of your 
vet staff has to be FEI-approved (that can be the toughest part in some 
areas), and the riders are required to wear helmets and either use safety 
stirrups of some sort or have footgear with heels.  (The stirrups with front 
cages qualify--not sure about the ones with breakaway sides.  And a lot of 
the Ariats and Millers footgear that are in common use qualify as having 
heels.)
