Two new riders have been submitted to the Dutch A-teams. Pony rider Kimberly de Jongh and Grand Prix rider Kirsten Beckers got into the A-team due to recent excellent performances.
The criterium for A-team submission is to score three 70% scores in a national Grand Prix within six months, or three times 68% in a CDI Grand Prix. Pony riders have to achieve three times a score of 67% in the pony team test at a national show or at a CDI-P.
De Jongh made it on the pony A-team with Just You n Me. With Broere Montecristo, Beckers now has her second horse in the Grand Prix A-team.
