At the Tetrathlon meeting the committee unanimously agreed that all members are to wear ear defenders, as duty of care to young people’s health.\u00a0 Following further consultation with Louly this is the Area 14 policy which will be published on the Area 14 website and reviewed at the end of 2026.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Ear Defenders:\u00a0 In Area 14 all Pony Club members are to wear ear defenders (which cover the ears) at the firing point while shooting is in progress, during competitions and at practices.\u00a0 Area 14 members will be expected to wear ear defenders when competing and practising out of Area.\u00a0 Infants may not be in the range while shooting is in progress.\u00a0 All others aged under 18 years are encouraged to wear ear defenders while in the shooting range.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

PC branches are encouraged to purchase club ear defenders, in order that they are accessible for everyone, and to ensure a quality model is being used.\u00a0 Electronic models are not recommended.\u00a0 Please see a link below for styles which I hope is helpful:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
