Striders are proud to have sponsored 12 local athletes this year across a variety of different sports including mountain biking, football, netball and surfing. We are delighted to be able to assist these aspiring athletes in achieving their sporting goals. Funding is now fully allocated for the 24/25 year but we will re-open applications in April 2025.

What some of our sponsorship recipients say:

“I was lucky enough to get a small but impactful amount of money from your organization, making it possible for me to represent my club and country in a national tournament, held in Australia… I would like to thank everyone for helping me to come closer to my dream of playing football and make my love for the sport stronger. Thank you.”

“I am writing to say a huge thanks for your incredible support during my European cycling campaign last year. Your sponsorship really made a difference, helping me compete at a level I never thought possible and opening up so many new opportunities. I’m genuinely grateful for everything you’ve done — it’s meant a lot to me… The experiences, lessons and connections I’ve gained through racing in Europe will continue to shape my path in the sport for years to come. Your generosity has opened doors that were previously out of reach, and I will be forever grateful.”

“I would like to give a huge thank you for the generous sponsorship koha you made towards my trip to the U18 Netball National Champs this July in Dunedin. Your kind donation contributed in lifting financial weight off my shoulders to get down to the Netball National competition representing Kerikeri. It was not only a huge honour to represent Kerikeri down there, but also amazing to have the Kerikeri Striders club supporting my journey. I’ve enjoyed playing sports all my life, but with the many costs that go towards sports trips, gear, and activities, it’s amazing to have clubs and support systems such as Kerikeri Striders Club to help and support passionate individuals such as myself.”
