General Information\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tetrathlon (numerical prefix \u201ctetra\u201d \u2013 meaning four) is a team and individual competition organised by the Pony Club for its members. It comprises Shooting, Swimming, Running and Riding.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Many Branches arrange year-round Tetrathlon training sessions and competitions as a precursor to Summer Area Competitions, generally held in June and July, from which the strongest teams and individuals go forward to the annual Tetrathlon Championships.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Junior and Senior International competitions are also arranged in June and August respectively, with teams representing English Regions, Scotland, Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland and Wales and Borders competing for top honours.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Every other year there is an invitational international exchange programme to compete against other nations. In 2018, Boys and Girls teams travelled to the USA for a three week exchange, and in 2020 the Pony Club were set to be hosting an exchange for teams from Australia, the USA, Canada and Ireland.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
