Eventing and Cross Country<\/h3>\n

Eventing involves three phases: Dressage, Show Jumping & Cross Country.\u00a0 At Pony Club, all three phases are completed on the same day at a one day event (ODE).\u00a0Hunter Trials are competitions involving just the Cross Country phase.<\/p>\n

Mid Surrey hold Hunter Trials<\/a> throughout the year, using the wonderful cross country facilities at the\u00a0Pony Club field.\u00a0 Our cross country jumps cater for all levels and abilities and form the basis of our members training during rallies.\u00a0 \u00a0Mid Surrey Teams are split into levels of ability and if you are interested in joining a team, please contact the appropriate\u00a0Team Organiser<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Mid Surrey also host their own Eventer’s Challenge which comprises a course of show jumps followed by a course of cross country jumps and then finishing with some further show jumps.<\/p>\n

Tetrathlon and Triathlon<\/h3>\n

Tetrathlon is a team (4 members with best 3 scores to count) and individual competition for boys and girls of four phases:<\/p>\n

Riding – <\/strong>Cross country (and sometimes showjumping) over 16 fences with opening\/shutting gate mounted and dismounting and negotiating a slip rail included.\u00a0 This is positive scoring so the competitor is rewarded for the number of obstacles they successfully negotiate.\u00a0 The Mini Mini ride is in an enclosed area over a shortened course of show jumps. However; if the height of the cross country jumps is too great for an individual\u2019s current ability, there is the option of \u2018jumping down\u2019 a height but take penalty in points for doing so.<\/p>\n

Shooting – <\/strong>Air pistols at static or turning targets (depending on age group). Shooting practice is offered regularly in the run up to the competitions.<\/p>\n

Swimming<\/strong>\u00a0–<\/strong> As far as each competitor can swim for a set time (between 2 and 3 minutes).<\/p>\n

Running –<\/strong> Over a distance of 500m to 3000m depending on age group.<\/p>\n

Age groups are “Beanies” mixed gender 8 years and under (not allowed to shoot but substitute bean bag throwing).\u00a0 All other age groups, girls and boys have separate classes.\u00a0 “Tadpoles” under 10 years, “Mini” under 12 years, “Junior” under 15 years and “Intermediate”-“Open”, over 15 years.<\/p>\n

Triathlon is for members under 12 years where the riding phase isn’t included, but enables them to still take part in the other phases.<\/p>\n

Mounted Games<\/h3>\n

Mounted Games is a team sport that combines a love of ponies and friends with various races. Teams of four or five riders and ponies take part in a series of exciting and exhilarating races that involve a mix of turns, handovers, skill, vaulting and galloping against other teams.<\/p>\n

Often run on grass or all-weather surfaces, Mounted Games is an adaptation of Gymkhana. It is great fun for you and your pony. Develop skills such as improving accuracy, agility, concentration, speed, hand to eye coordination, team work and sportsmanship whilst having lots of fun.<\/p>\n
