There, they were defeated 6–3 by the Canadian team, settling for silver. [4]
Team Schwaller began competing on the World Curling Tour during the 2015–16 season and found success, reaching the playoffs in four of their events.

[11] Because of their success from the previous season, the team joined the elite ranks and competed in their first ever Grand Slam of Curling events. They played in the 2018 Masters, 2018 National and the 2019 Champions Cup, however, missed the playoffs at all three events. The team also played in three legs of the Curling World Cup. [12] In the second leg, they finished in seventh place with a 2–4 record. In the third leg, they finished in fourth with a 4–2 record and in the grand final, they went 3–3. At the Swiss Men's Championship, the team finished second in the round robin with a 6–1 record but was able to avenge that loss in the 1 vs. 2 page playoff game by defeating the Peter de Cruz rink. In the final, they once again played Team de Cruz where they lost in an extra end 8–7. [13] Also during the 2018–19 season, Schwaller and his team competed in the 2019 Winter Universiade. There, they went 6–3 through the round robin and won their qualification game before losing both the semifinal and bronze medal games, settling for fourth. [14]
Schwaller and his team began the 2019–20 season by winning two more tour events, the Baden Masters [15] and the 2019 Cameron's Brewing Oakville Fall Classic. [16] Later in the fall, the team was selected to represent Switzerland at the 2019 European Curling Championships. [17] There, they posted a 6–3 round robin record. This qualified them for the playoffs where they beat Denmark's Mikkel Krause in the semifinals, before losing to Sweden's Niklas Edin rink in the final, settling for silver. [18] In Grand Slam play, the team competed in four events and reached the playoffs for the first time at the 2020 Canadian Open. There, they lost out to Brad Gushue in the quarterfinals. [19] At the Swiss Championship, the team went 7–2 through the round robin and championship pools, qualifying them for the final against the de Cruz rink.

To begin the abbreviated 2020–21 season, Team Schwaller finished runner-up at the 2020 Schweizer Cup, losing in the final to Andrin Schnider. [23] They also lost in the finals of the Adelboden International and the 2.0 Cup, both to the de Cruz rink. They were then, however, able to win the 2020 Curling Masters Champéry, their only tour win of the season. [24] In January 2021, Schwaller competed at the 2021 Swiss Mixed Doubles Curling Championship with partner Briar Hürlimann. The pair finished atop of the round robin standings with a 6–1 record, sending them directly to the best-of-three final where they played Alina Pätz and Sven Michel. They defeated Pätz / Michel two games to zero to claim the Swiss Mixed Doubles title. [25] The pair then played against the 2020 Swiss champion rink of Jenny Perret and Martin Rios to decide who would represent Switzerland at the 2021 World Mixed Doubles Curling Championship. They lost the best-of-five series three games to zero. [26] At the Swiss Championship, the team could not defend their title, losing all three of their matches against the de Cruz rink, including the final. [27] As they had won the Swiss Championship in 2020 but could not participate in the World Championship due to the cancellation, Team Schwaller played Team de Cruz in a best-of-five series to determine which team would represent Switzerland at the 2021 World Men's Curling Championship. After winning the first two games, Team de Cruz defeated Team Schwaller in the other three matches to win the series three games to two, earning themselves the spot at the World Championship. [28] Schwaller and his team ended their season at the 2021 Champions Cup and 2021 Players' Championship Grand Slam events, which were played in a "curling bubble" in Calgary, Alberta, with no spectators, to avoid the spread of the coronavirus. [29] The team failed to reach the playoffs at both events. At the end of the season, Schwaller and Hürlimann won the 2021 WCT Arctic Cup in Dudinka, Russia. [30]
The Schwaller rink had a strong start to the 2021–22 season, winning both the 2021 Baden Masters and the 2021 Euro Super Series tour events. [31] [32] Next, Team Schwaller competed in the 2021 Swiss Olympic Curling Trials where they would face the de Cruz rink in a best-of-seven series to determine who would represent Switzerland at the 2022 Winter Olympics. [33] Despite entering the Trials winning the first two events of the season, Team de Cruz won the first four matches of the event, securing their spot as the Olympic representatives. [34] Back on tour, Team Schwaller reached the semifinals of four events, not able to reach the final in any of them. They played in both the 2021 Masters and 2021 National Slams but failed to reach the playoffs at both events. In the new year, they finished runner-up at the St. Galler Elite Challenge before entering the Swiss Championship. There, the team dominated the field, losing only one game en route to claiming their second Swiss Men's title. [35] With the win, they went on to represent Switzerland at the 2022 World Men's Curling Championship. [36] After having a strong start by winning five out of their first seven games, they finished the round robin in sixth place with a 6–6 record, narrowly qualifying for the playoffs. They then faced Italy's Joël Retornaz in the qualification game, where they lost 10–4 and were eliminated from contention. [37] They ended their season at the 2022 Players' Championship where they lost all three of their games.
In April 2022, Schwaller announced that he would be leaving the Bern Zähringer team.
