Area 16 Rule for Branch participating in Area Qualifying Competition<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

In order to be able to compete at Area 16 Competitions, members from all branches in Area 16 must have actively participated in Branch training, rallies or volunteering at Branch activities on at least 3 occasions during the previous 12 month period unless prevented from doing so by illness, absence from home or any other reason which in the opinion of the DC and Area Rep justifies absence.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

For the purpose of this Area Rule, a rally, coaching or training session or Branch activity or competition is one that has been organised by the branch committee, Area Rep or Training Committee.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

In addition to demonstrating loyalty to the branch, the combination of horse and rider will be required to prove their competence, safety and fitness of horse and pony in the discipline that they wish to compete in. This can either be realised in training or by current competition records.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

Refunds for Area organised Events<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

If you wish to withdraw after booking the event please contact the organiser of the event. If it is before the closing date then a full refund will be given. If it is after the closing date then please email the Area Rep area16@pcuk.org with a doctors\/vets certificate and reasons for withdrawing for consideration for a refund.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

Reasonable Adjustments<\/strong> – <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

The Pony Club is committed to ensuring that, wherever possible, members are able to access all aspects of the Branch and Centre activities we offer. Reasonable Adjustments are any actions that help to reduce the effect of a disability or difficulty. They are needed because some disabilities can make it harder for members to take part in activities than it
would have been had the member not been disabled. For instance a member who is deaf would not hear a starting bell therefore a visual indicator such as a flag could be waved instead.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

A member does not necessarily have to be disabled (as defined by the Equality Act 2010) to be allowed an access arrangement. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

Reasonable Adjustments are intended to increase access to Tests and other activities and are intended to assist Members in demonstrating their attainment without affecting or circumventing the Test requirements. All Reasonable Adjustment Plans will be treated confidentially and only shared with permission from the member and their parent (if under 18yrs old).
Reasonable Adjustments can be used for the Pony Club Tests and should be approved in advance of the Test taking place. Reasonable Adjustments are changes made to an assessment or to the way an assessment is conducted that reduce or remove a disadvantage caused by a student\u2019s disability.
Reasonable Adjustments will not affect the reliability or validity of the Test outcome nor should they give the Member an assessment advantage over other Members undertaking the same or similar Tests. Where possible the Reasonable Adjustment should reflect a Member\u2019s normal way of working. The Reasonable Adjustment is intended to give
all Pony Club Members a level playing field in which to demonstrate their skills, knowledge and understanding.
Reasonable Adjustments can also be used to allow for members to take part in activities or competitions. As with Tests these adjustments should be approved in advance of the activity or competition. For more information, please refer to the Reasonable Adjustment Policy which can be found on the website.
Some Pony Club members may already have an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) which can be used to help plan Reasonable Adjustments. However, the Pony Club will strive to ensure inclusivity for any of its members who need additional support whether or not they have an official statement.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n
