The dressage selection committee of the Swiss Equestrian Federation has announced the teams for 2015. The committee selected the riders which have submitted onto the A-teams from pony level up to senior Grand Prix.
Riders listed on the A-team are eligible for championship team selection in 2015. The A-teams will be expanded or altered based on the performances of the riders during 2015.
The Swiss equestrian federation is still struggling to have a permanent management at elite level. The position for senior team captain is still open, but Evelyne Niklaus is the interim team manager. Heidi Bemelmans is in charge of the teams from Pony up to U25 level.
In the Under 25 team riders up to the age of 27 can be submitted as a developing squad for elite Grand Prix level.
