ESNZ have created and launched our Drug and Alcohol Policy, which can be found on our rules page, along with some frequently asked questions:

https://www.nzequestrian.org.nz/esnz/rules-regulations/esnz-rules/

The policy has been created and put in place primarily to protect Athletes’ health and safety, as ESNZ recognises that the use of drugs and alcohol can adversely affect an individual’s performance and can be a contributing factor towards making the sport unsafe.

The intention of this policy is to provide a tool for taking active steps towards reducing the harms of alcohol and drugs within our organisation.
