Harness Racing New Zealand and the One New Zealand Warriors have brought the two codes together in a partnership providing mutual benefits for both sports.
The organisations are driven to cross-promote their codes to expand fan engagement and provide impetus for commercial growth.
The first joint venture between HRNZ and the One New Zealand Warriors will coincide with the NRL club’s much-anticipated Anzac Day match against the Newcastle Knights at Apollo Projects Stadium in Christchurch right next door to Addington Raceway, the home of New Zealand harness racing.
There’ll be racing at Addington ahead of the NRL match kicking off at 8.00pm with packages being offered to attend both events.
