The Austrian Equestrian Federation has released the names of the riders included in the teams from FEI Pony to Grand Prix level for the 2013 show season.
Team listed riders get priority when they enter for international competitions and are eligible to participate in training seminars. Riders have to be submitted to a team before being considered for team nomination for a continental championship.
