American actress and avid equestrian Kaley Cuoco is the voice of the FEI’s latest digital campaign, sharing her enthusiasm, passion and love for the sport that has been at the core of the Olympic Movement for over a century. #ForTheLoveOfEquestrian has launched with an exclusive heart-warming video narrated by the actress, who has been riding since she was a teenager.
The campaign, scheduled to run over the summer, features incredible stories of passion, commitment and pride from elite athletes and their teams, including Boyd Exell to everyday riders, embracing the dedication and courage that underpins equestrian sport and its surrounding lifestyle.
“We made it our priority to engage with our community and have created a new digital campaign to celebrate all the positives that make our sport unique”, FEI Commercial Director Ralph Straus said.
“We are a global sport but we are also a way of life. Equestrian events not only provide thrilling action for fans and spectators around the world, but equestrian sport is all about the connection and, whether we can be together or not, we wanted to make sure that with the launch of this campaign, we are helping to fill the void created by the lack of live sport during this difficult time.”
