                     Welcome to Albrighton Hunt Pony Club

 

Our committee headed by DC, Kate Burden and Branch Secretary, Amy Glover. We who organise various activities throughout the year to try and cater for every member of the branch.  This is a difficult thing to achieve and we are always open to suggestions.

We offer instruction in a wide variety of activities: horse trials, show jumping, dressage, mounted games, polocrosse, tetrathlon, as well as general working rallies and of course help towards the various horsemanship tests.

We hold two residential camps each year, Senior camp for members aged 11 and upwards and Junior for members aged 10 and below (under 7’s attend on a day basis) and many varied competitions, all aimed at giving our members as much help and fun as possible.

Whether you wish to compete or just enjoy and get the best out of your pony, we hope being a member of our Branch will help you achieve this.

Apart from the summer, rallies are usually held on a surface to try and avoid having to cancel them if there is bad weather. In the winter months we try to keep rallies indoors to avoid the worst of the weather!

If you have any queries please email in the first instance: albrighton@pcuk.org. All the committee are volunteers many of whom have day jobs as well as Pony Club, but they will always do their very best to help.
