Established in 1939 we are one of the largest and most active branches in the Northern Ireland Pony Club known as Area 17.
North Down is an inclusive, friendly and welcoming club for new members of all abilities up to the age of 25. We are very supportive of our members and run an active, varied and fun-filled programme throughout the year.
We run numerous rallies and leagues at different locations; for all levels and age groups. We have experienced instructors who encourage every member with the emphasis on fun, safety and learning. The highlight of the year is the annual summer camp!
We are also a competitive club for those members who love to compete! We have opportunities for members to take part in all disciplines – dressage, showjumping, eventing, tetrathlon, polocrosse and games. Each year we have individuals or teams who compete at the local area competitions and have qualified to represent Area 17 nationally at the Pony Club Championships.
Please check out the Membership tab if you would like to join our branch. To keep up to date with our current activities please see our public Facebook page.
“A strong Pony Club is built on teamwork — riders, parents, ponies and friends, all pulling together.”
