Welcome to the official website of Counties Kidz Kartz

Club Profile

The love of horses and racing is something that often begins at a very young age. The aim for kidz kartz right from the beginning was to encourage all those future harness drivers, owners and trainers out there with 'Kidz Kartz'.

Kidz Kartz is a dedicated programme designed to teach and encourage the young talent, and give horse-crazy kids the interaction, instruction and hands-on experience they need. They learn all the basics of caring for a pony right up to race day driving.

Kidz Kartz has been running in New Zealand since 2003 and started at Kumeu Trotting Club by Deneece and Murray Goldsworthy of Kumeu, where it has now become a major part of the racing scene throughout the country.

Ann Phillips our club Godmother, along with a helping hand from Kumeu kidz kartz and a group of local parents and trainers introduced this sport to the Counties Area in September 2005. Since then it has taken off in the area and is becoming very popular to all involved.

The biggest bonus is you don't even need to own a pony to join Kidz Kartz. We have club ponies that can be used by everyone of all levels.
