ESNZ Partners
The Bell Tea & Coffee Company
Bell Tea’s long-standing partnership with ESNZ is now in its 32nd year, one of the longest standing partnerships in NZ sport. During the 2009-10 season Bell Tea’s investment into our sport reached a new high, including its largest ever sponsorship input into the Bell Tea Olympic Cup at the Horse of the Year Show. Equestrian and Bell Tea are synonymous and ESNZ wishes to thank Mark Hamilton, Lynne Banks, Jessica Bailey, Matt Greenwood and the rest of the team at Bell Tea (and Gravity Coffee) for their ongoing friendship and support. ESNZ’s relationship with Bell Tea is closer than a simple commercial sponsorship – it is a true partnership.
NZ Community Trust
NZCT has again provided invaluable financial assistance to ESNZ and our sport; especially towards National Office costs, improvements to the cross country course at the National Equestrian Centre at Taupo and towards major development of the Eventing facilities at the National Equestrian Centre, Christchurch.
The Lion Foundation
ESNZ is again grateful to the Lion Foundation for its generous grant for the purchase of much needed new machinery and equipment for the National Equestrian Centre at Taupo. The Lion Foundation has also continued its kind support of Dressage NZ during 2009-10.
SPARC
Sport & Recreation New Zealand (SPARC) is the Government’s sport agency and is ESNZ’s largest external funding contributor, providing approximately $1,000,000 in outcome-based investment during the 2009-10 financial year. A large majority of this funding is for High Performance (specifically for Eventing) but also includes Sports Development and Coach Development support. SPARC works closely with ESNZ offering additional services such as governance and management courses as well as advice in a range of areas. ESNZ has a strong relationship with SPARC and appreciates their continued support of so many of our programmes.
NZAS
The New Zealand Academy of Sport is SPARC’s high performance services provider. ESNZ receives significant benefit from its close relationship with both the North and South Island academies. NZAS staff are regularly involved with improving our high performance programme including setting of individual targets, increasing the integration of the best sports science advice and improving equine health standards.
Halberg Trust
ESNZ is grateful to The Halberg Trust for its support of our Para-Equestrian programme, one of only four sports to receive such support via SPARC’s No Exceptions strategy. The Halberg Trust investment enables ESNZ to increase participation levels of riders with disabilities in our sport.
Fiber Fresh
In 2011 ESNZ was delighted to announce a new multi-year partnership with Fiber Fresh, makers of advanced fibre nutrition for horses, who have taken the naming rights of the "Fiber Fresh National Equestrian Centre Taupo" for the next three years. ESNZ wishes to thank Fiber Fresh for its support of one of our sport's prime assets and look forward to working closely with them.
