DRNZ Scholarships

Congratulations to the 2023/24 scholarship recipients:
DRNZ Adult Member - Amanda Mills mentored by Jenny Chandler 
DRNZ Youth Member - Kayla Warbrooke mentored by Emma Tylee

The Distance Riding New Zealand (DRNZ) Committee are very pleased to announce that we will be offering two scholarships for DRNZ members for the 2024/2025 season.

These scholarships will be awarded to one adult member and one youth member who are deemed to be ambassadors for DRNZ showing high levels of horsemanship and sportsmanship. The recipients of the scholarship will receive free entry to all DRNZ events for the 2024/2025 season as well as coaching by an experienced longstanding endurance rider.

If this sounds like something you would like to be considered for, please write to us telling us why you believe you would be a worthy recipient of the scholarship - this should include what your goals are (not just distance riding goals), how you plan to achieve these goals and how this scholarship will support your future goals.

If you are a youth member, please also provide a letter from your parent or guardian stating that they approve of your application and why they think you would benefit from the Scholarship.

Please send your application to distanceridingnz@outlook.co.nz.
