Road to the 2027 FEI Junior World Championships
Our Kiwi Team’s Journey to Italy
In 2027, members of the Kāpiti Equestrian & Vaulting Club Kiwi Team are hoping to represent New Zealand at the FEI Junior World Championships in Italy.
The team is aiming to secure qualification in January 2027, marking a major milestone on the road to international competition. This incredible opportunity will see our athletes compete against some of the world’s best young vaulters while proudly wearing the silver fern on the international stage.
Before heading to Italy, the team plans to travel to Germany in June 2027 to train with leading international coaches and athletes. This valuable training experience will help the team fine-tune their routines, gain international competition experience, and prepare to perform at their best on the world stage.
Following their training camp in Germany, the team will travel on to Italy to compete at the FEI Junior World Championships, the pinnacle event for junior equestrian vaulting athletes.
