Goulburn District Race Club has announced Goulburn Soldiers Club as its major partner for the 2021 edition of the Goulburn Cup.

The partnership for the race club's blue-ribbon event held in early November was recently announced by both organisations and includes financial, branding and business development opportunities.

Goulburn District Race Club's CEO, Robyn Fife said the club is thrilled to "saddle up" with Goulburn Soldiers Club for this year's Goulburn Soldiers Club $200,000 Goulburn Cup.

"Our race club is extremely excited to have Goulburn Soldiers Club join us in presenting the Goulburn Cup in 2021," Ms Fife said.

"They're an organisation with a strong presence in our local community and a tremendous track record of supporting people, the community and events on the Goulburn calendar."

Goulburn Soldiers Club's Promotions & Loyalty Coordinator, Emma McColl said community sponsorship was an important part of what the organisation is about.

"Our club has a proud history of investing in the local community as a natural part of how we do business," Ms McColl said. "Goulburn Soldiers Club is all about supporting our local community in as many ways as possible.

"It's important to us, and supporting Goulburn Race Club and its major event on the racing calendar is another way of doing just that. Both clubs have a proud operating history in this community and this type of partnership is a natural way of continuing that tradition together."

Ms Fife added: "Our club and its local participants are part of an exciting, thriving industry in regional NSW and major events such as the Goulburn Cup are integral to what we offer and the country racing calendar in NSW."
