Please contact Aloma if a member would like some C / C+ care evenings. These will be run on a Tuesday evening without ponies at Glan y Wern.

10 riders needed on Sunday 14th Sept at Mostyn for the Area Steps course, 12-2.30pm. Members must be able to walk, trot, canter and jump small SJ off the lead. The session is free of charge as the course is to train our future coaches.

Champs – Mounted Games Results
Our junior team, trained by Joe Owen, put in a fantastic performance at the JCB Pony Club championships, finishing equal 3rd overall. After a nail biting run-off, they were placed 4th out of 28 teams – an incredible achievement in such a competitive field.
The day began with two morning heats of 14 teams each. Our team won their heat in style, securing their place in the afternoon session alongside 6 other qualifiers, plus seven from the second heat.
The afternoon was a whirlwind of speed, skill, determination, with every team eager to make it to the finals of each race. Joe remained as cool as a cucumber, guiding the riders with calm confidence and keeping spirits high. Meanwhile, parents on the sidelines were on tenterhooks, willing every turn, gallop and handover to go perfectly.
A brilliant result and a day full of teamwork, talent, and true Pony Club spirit – well done to everyone involved.
Joe, Catrin , Anni, Alys, Megan and Elis – CONGRATULATIONS!
