Orica-AIS have confirmed a roster of 12-riders for the 2016 season in announcing the re-signing of Chloe McConville, Macey Stewart and Alexandra Manly. Loren Rowney, Tayler Wiles (both Velocio-SRAM) and Annemiek van Vleuten (Bigla) join the team next season.
"We are really happy with the position we are in heading into Christmas," sport director Gene Bates said. "Our camp was extremely successful and to come away with a win and two additional podiums with a small team in Launceston has the team approaching the 2016 season with confidence," he added of the Stan Siejka Classic.
"I think our aggressive racing ability will certainly continue to shine through. We have got a great group of ambitious riders this season, and riders we are confident can deliver us fire power in the finals of race."

Having spent time with the three new signings at the team camp, Bates explained he and the team have worked on a strategy for 2016 that all parties are happy with.
"We have done a lot of homework and background work on the three new riders that will join the team and from what I've seen so far, they are going to be great additions to our team," he said. "We will be targeting one-day races and the shorter Tours.
"We have a huge amount of talent in the time trial and prologues which is going to set us up well for those smaller Tours and certainly a lot of fire power across the one-day races, both the cobbled classics and the more selective races."
