Fredericks' 2012 Olympic campaign hit a stumbling block when he was hospilitalised after a fall at the Saumar event in France. He made a quick recovery to win the 2012 CIC3* Renswoude event in the Netherlands and cement his spot in the Australian Team.

He was part of the 2012 London Olympics equestrian team with his wife Lucinda, Andrew Hoy, Chris Burton and Sam Griffiths. He fell and was eliminated in the cross country.

He was appointed to the position of Coach to the Canadian team in January 2013 and has now relocated to Ocala, Florida where he has started up Fredericks Equestrian International and is based out of Oak Lane Farm.
