Woodhill Sands is a premier equestrian centre, situated on 10.5 hectares of land with over 3 acres of all-weather sand arenas as well as a premier grass arena. Situated between Kumeu and Helensville in the Northwest of Auckland, Woodhill Sands is the principal equestrian training and competition venue in Rodney and serves the wider Auckland region.
Petcover’s sponsorship will continue to assist the Woodhill Sands’ team in supporting riders across Northland and Waikato, bringing competitors and their supporters into the area from far and wide. Woodhill Sands is the most used competition and training facility in New Zealand.
The Woodhill Sands Trust (WST) owns and operates Woodhill Sands. The Trust was established, with support from Equestrian Sports NZ and NZ Pony Clubs Association, to allow community ownership of this intergenerational asset for our riding community, securing its ongoing use as a competition and training venue in Auckland and the upper North Island.
The Trust holds the values of Kaitiakitanga to act as guardians and show care and the wise management of the venue to ensure its ongoing access for the riding community into the future.
With Woodhill Sands now owned by the sport, the journey has begun to grow Woodhill Sands into a premier amateur equestrian competition venue.
Woodhill Sands caters to all levels of equestrian sport from youth and grassroots recreational riders to competitive riders at a national championship level. Woodhill Sands proudly holds events across a wide range of equestrian activities and is also the home to many local equestrian groups who base their events at our venue.
