Equestrian Australia national squads for eventing are now organised in accordance with new criteria which aligns more closely with Australia’s Winning Edge – the high performance strategy of the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS).
The new structure includes two tiers – High Performance and Recognition, with categories and specific selection criteria for each.

Recognition Squads
The Recognition Squads for eventing have categories throughout the senior and developmental stages including youth, whilst acknowledging combinations that have demonstrated performances at competition level worthy of recognition during the previous 12 months.
Within the Eventing National Recognition Squad there are two categories - Senior and Development.
Riders will be added to the Squad immediately after the event in which the score has been achieved. Squads are reviewed in July and January.
These are current as of 2nd February 2016
