Aachen World Championships: The Red Jackets Have Their Sights Set on the 2028 Olympics!

The show jumping events at the World Championships begin on Tuesday, 18 August, in Aachen, and the Swiss team has a clear mission: to secure qualification for the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.

To secure the team qualification, Switzerland must finish in the top seven in the world. Team chef d’équipe Peter van der Waaij is fielding a squad led by its two key riders: Martin Fuchs with Conner Jei and Steve Guerdat with Dynamix de Belhême . They are joined by Jura-based rider Gaëtan Joliat with Chelsea Z and Jason Smith with Picobello van’t Roosakker.

Alain Jufer with Chaccoo de l’Escaut MM will travel with the team as the reserve rider.

Go Switzerland – on the road to LA 2028!
