Two riders with horses on competition field

Special Olympics at CSIO St. Gallen

Two riders with horses on competition field

The SOSWI Support Association St. Gallen was given the opportunity to present itself at the CSIO with its own booth. In addition, Rebecca Thalmann and Andreas Bucher—two riders who had just competed for medals at the National Summer Games Zug 2026—were able to demonstrate a segment of the English Working Trail discipline at this prestigious equestrian event, a competition in which they had also participated in Zug.

For both athletes, it was a special honor to showcase their skills in front of the impressive backdrop of the main grandstand and the large audience in attendance. The demonstration not only provided insight into Special Olympics Equestrian, but also impressively showcased the athletes’ commitment, abilities, and passion.
