Huge names like Peder Fredricson and Bertram Allen have been recruited in while the U25 young guns will also be taking centre stage with Thibault Philippaerts.

With every point counting more than ever, some teams have opted for stability, while others have pulled the trigger on game-changing transfers to reignite their title charge.

Standing firm, seven teams have made no mid-season changes:
  • Valkenswaard United

  • Basel Cosmopolitans

  • Istanbul Warriors powered by Carpe Diem Equestrian Team

  • Madrid In Motion

  • Shanghai Swans

  • Riesenbeck International powered by HorseGym

  • Monaco Comets powered by Iron Dames

But elsewhere, the transfer market has been alive with deals as teams have reshuffled their squads in pursuit of podium glory:

Confirmed Transfers:
  • Rome Gladiators powered by Cavalleria Toscana: The mighty Peder Fredricson joins in place of Rikke Beinda Barker, with Maria Gabriela Brugal Gasso replacing legend John Whitaker - a changing of the guard for the Roman warriors.

  • New York Empire powered by Lugano: A major shake-up - Bertram Allen replaces Spencer Smith and Trevor Breen comes in for Olivier Perreau - Empire looking for a dramatic turnaround.

  • Cannes Stars powered by Iron Dames: Italy’s Giulia Martinengo Marquet joins, replacing Sanne Thijssen as the Stars push for a late surge.

  • St Tropez Pirates: Thibault Philippaerts comes aboard to replace Mariano Bastida as the Pirates seek a late charge up the rankings.

  • Mexico Amigos powered by H5 Stables: Petronella Andersson will be replacing Kendra Claricia Brinkop - a bold move to inject fresh power into the team lineup.

  • Prague Lions powered by Czech Equestrian Team: Derin Demirsoy replaces Kyle Timm, adding new firepower to their roster.

  • Doha Falcons: Sheikh Ali Khalid Al Thani returns to replace Julien Anquetin, bringing experience and Qatari pride back to the squad.

  • Stockholm Hearts powered by H&M We Love Horses: Caroline Rehoff Pedersen is in for Qinyu Pang - a strategic switch as the Hearts hunt the leaders.

  • Scandinavian Vikings: Amanda Landeblad steps up, taking the reins from Johan Sebastian Gulliksen.

  • Paris Panthers: Double deal - Celine Schoonbroodt de Azevedo replaces Felipe de Azevedo Filho, and Eugenio Grimaldi steps in for Luis Felipe de Azevedo Neto, signalling an aggressive bid for Parisian podium glory.


As the second half of the season looms, these trades add fuel to an already blazing championship battle. Will consistency win out - or will these bold moves deliver the ultimate mid-season turnaround?

One thing is certain: the GCL 2025 Championship race just got a lot more interesting.

Stay tuned. The fight for the podium is far from over.
