Please note some information is not final and confirmed.

we will continue to update as news breaks.

2015.

Whilst nothing official has been released it has not been
a big secret as to who is on the team for 2015.
After a great 2014 season from Sacha Naude, Michael Kok and
Tristan Purdon there is no surprise at their return to the
factory Yamaha team. After a year off, we see the return of
Caleb Tennant who is certain to make some waves in 2015. The
rising star, Reid Sinnicks is a welcomed addition to the team
as is WMX rider Nanda Swiegers who will also be doing some
GP’s. After being off for most of the year with injury,
Dirco van der Westhuizen will make his comeback and national
favourite Justin Thompson as well as his factory Yamaha team
mate Seth van den Abeele will both make the return to the
team. The final addition is support rider Gerhard Grove. He
rounds off a very strong team that we look forward to seeing
in the National Championship.
