The Belvoir Hunt Pony Club is based in South Lincolnshire. We are a large, friendly and active branch of the Pony Club, covering a large part of the East Midlands including the counties of Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire and Rutland.
We have nearly 120 members aged 3-25 and we organise rallies, events and competitions to help introduce our members to different equestrian sports like Dressage, Show Jumping, Eventing, Polocrosse, Tetrathlon and Endurance.
Our friendly training sessions are organised for different age groups and we are lucky to have access to some fantastic coaches to help our riders improve and get the best out of their riding. We also hold treasure hunts, stable management sessions, run training for for pony club tests and also teach our members about stable management and pony care through our Pony Club badges programme.
We have a very successful track record competing at regional Area (County) qualifiers and National level each year, giving great experience to members who are looking for the opportunity to compete at a higher level.
Over the summer, we run Pony Club camps in fantastic locations such as Buckminster Park, and Aylesford Equine for Mini (3-7), Junior (8-10) Senior (11-16) and 16+ age groups.
If this sounds like fun, and you would like to find out more, please contact our Membership Secretary Sam Salden, who can answer any questions you might have and explain how to join in the fun.
