The amateur division is designed for the non-professional exhibitor who owns and
shows their horse.

Your application is made under Section 241 AMATEUR ELIGIBILITY of the NZ Western Riding Federation rules; https://westernriding.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/NZWRF-Rule-Book-updated-Aug-2024.pdf

Please use your name and Amateur as payment references.

Please note:

Amateur cards will be processed once a week on a Wednesday. If you have an urgent request which falls outside this time slot, then this will be processed at a charge of $50.00.

(Sadly this has been deemed necessary due to a number of late requests received last season, putting additional work load on already busy voluntary staff).

Amateur status is not valid until application form & fee have been received by NZWRF and electronic Amateur card issued.
