News From The FEI International Desk
Hi All.
This press release came to me from my friends at Dressage Direct. They are good people and do a wonderful job of reporting the news on shows and other important issues.
Trond Asmyr new FEI director DressageThe successor of Swedish Eva Salomon as Director Dressage is from Scandinavia as well: Norwegian Trond Asmyr (54). He has been a dressage rider on a local level, a FEI dressage judge and has been 12 years on the board of the Norwegian Equestrian Federation. The latest six years he acted as vice president. “I have so far worked in the corporate world, among others 13 years in American Express”, Trond Asmyr says. He is looking forward to his new challenging task in Lausanne. “The sport of dressage is in my heart. I am looking forward to working with the disciplines fulltime. Paralympics is also covered by the position. It is certainly a period of changes and challenges, and it could not be a more interesting time to start.”
I look forward to meeting and working with Trond while on the Dressage Task Force. It is a huge job he has taken on and very big shoes to fill after Eva, but I am sure he is up for the challenge.
Cheers!
