Changes Applying to ALL Sports 

Across all Pony Club sports, the age at which horses and ponies may compete has been updated. In their first eligible year, horses must now be at least 60 months old before competing. This welfare-led change prevents horses from competing too soon after turning four and introduces greater consistency across disciplines. While the principle is consistent, Members should check their individual sport rulebook for any additional sport-specific detail. 

In addition, the wording around the jewellery rule has been updated in all rulebooks to provide greater clarity. 

Pony Club Rules and Policies
