Team Teal 2021

The Team Teal Campaign for 2021 runs from 1st February to 14th March (inclusive). 

Founded by Duncan McPherson in Victoria in 2014, the campaign was started to help raise awareness and raise funds for research on Ovarian Cancer.
McPherson lost his wife to Ovarian Cancer and vowed to continue her fight, and has grown the movement from Victoria, to nationwide Australia and now New Zealand.

Every female driver in New Zealand will wear the Teal Pants during February and March, with each win receiving donations from the Club where the racing is held and $100 from Harness Racing New Zealand.

Our ambassadors in 2021 are  

North Island
Alicia Harrison sponsored by Ange Herlihy (Arbonne)
Nicky Chilcott sponsored by Craig Thompson (Whales Harness)
South Island
Ellie Barron sponsored by McCallums Group
Sam Ottley sponsored by Stevie Golding (Stevie Golding Harcourts Four Seasons)
Every female win from 1 Feb - 14 March collects a donation from the respective Club, $100 from Harness Racing New Zealand and $100 from Woodlands Stud NZ.

A number of the clubs racing during the period are running or hosting events for team teal. Please check back for more details as this page is being updated often.

For any further information in regards to Team Teal or to donate to the cause please contact Courtney Clarke at HRNZ
