HEADING DOWN UNDER >>
The level one steward (in eventing, showjumping, dressage and vaulting) has been stewarding for the past five years at national and international shows.
“But I have never been outside of Europe before,” she says. “The FEI programme for eventing officials gives me this great opportunity which I am able to help as assistant steward at Kihikihi.”
Pintér says she is looking forward to the whole event, but also at the chance to get to know New Zealand a little. “I would like to gain new experiences, and be a useful member of the steward team.”
Pintér is a former national champion in pony dressage lives in Kaposvár, in the south-west of Hungary. She is studying at Kaposvár University, in the faculty of Economic Science, and is an instructor at a local pony club. She is also an off-ice official for ice hockey.
