About the Pony Club  

The Pony Club is an international voluntary youth organisation for youngsters interested in ponies and riding. It is the largest association of riders in the world. A majority of the most successful riders in all disciplines of British equestrian competition have been Members of The Pony Club. 
 
The objectives are: 
 
To encourage young people to ride and to learn to enjoy all kinds of sport connected with horses and riding 
 
To give instruction in riding and horse mastership and to educate Members to look after and to take proper care of their animal 
 
To promote the highest ideals of sportsmanship, citizenship and loyalty to create strength of character and self-discipline 
 
Membership is available to children until the end of The Pony Club Year or the Centre Membership Subscription Year, whichever is relevant, in which they become 21 years old.  
 
What is Centre Membership? 
 
The Centre Membership Scheme was introduced in 1998 so that children and young people without their own pony could join and take part in Pony Club activities. Riding schools around the country become linked to the Pony Club, and through this link, can offer the Pony Club tests and badges to their clients. There are currently over 500 Pony Club Linked Centres in the UK and over 15,000 non pony owning young riders taking part in Pony Club activities.
