A new collaboration between Dressage NZ, Dressage Australia and the Australian Youth Championships oganisers has resulted in an opportunity for riders to compete in team and individual competitions on their own ponies or horses and  borrowed ponies and horses at the Australian Youth Championships to be held in Wagga Wagga NSW from 11-13 July 2025

The organisers have secured two ponies and one horse to date for NZL riders to compete on thanks to the generosity of  local owners, but any NZL combination eligible per the schedule is very welcome on their own horse or pony, noting pony riders must still be 16yrs at the end of the 2025 calendar year.

This is a self funded opportunity with organizational support from Dressage NZ and the Australian organisers AUSYTH APPLICATION_ 2025

As the timeframe to advise successful riders is 6 June,  please submit expressions of interest to attend on you own horse or a borrowed horses by Tuesday 27th June at 5pm on the link to the application form
