RALLIES<\/strong><\/p>\n

Please remember that these rallies are arranged for the benefit of our PONY CLUB MEMBERS. If you have yet to renew your annual Pony Club membership, please do so before booking in for the rallies.<\/strong> However, if you have friends with ponies who may like to come along and try out Suffolk Hunt Pony Club with a view to joining us, that can be accommodated too\u2026 just contact me directly with details.<\/p>\n

As always, at rallies Pony Club members are grouped by ability and aptitude, and instructors will work hard to ensure everyone is stretched in a safe and happy environment. We hope that riders will see an improvement in their confidence and ability over the course of the season. Please do feel that you can approach instructors at the end of the rally for hints and tips on how to progress with your pony\/horse should you want help.<\/p>\n

Some important reminders\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Please remember the new rules relating to riding hats and Body Protectors – The latest standards can be found\u00a0 in the Resource Hub\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. Please check our website for guidance on tack and rider dress<\/strong>. Rider and horse safety are paramount, and every pairing will be checked by an instructor before riding. If tack or dress are deemed hazardous\/dangerous, you will need to rectify the problems immediately BEFORE being allowed to continue with the ride. This Pony Club check extends to the general soundness and wellbeing of the horse and the quality of shoeing. Note that if you can\u2019t remedy the situation, you will have to leave the ride with lots of sympathy but no refund.<\/li>\n
  3. You are welcome to follow your child\u2019s ride at a distance at rallies (although lead rein parents\/helpers are obviously allowed closer!), but please do not interfere with the instruction!<\/li>\n
  4. Please remember to keep dogs on leads at all times<\/strong> as required by the National Trust and our own risk assessment.<\/li>\n
  5. It would be wise to keep a first aid kit in your car\/lorry containing insect sting cream, a form of antihistamine and paracetamol<\/strong> (or similar). While we do have qualified first aiders on site in case of accidents, we are not permitted to supply medication such as paracetamol, antihistamine, etc.<\/li>\n
  6. Should your child require special medication or have any health issues<\/strong>, please ensure that we know about it and that you inform your instructor at the start of the rally.<\/li>\n
  7. Remember we are on Facebook<\/strong> as a Closed Group (so you have to \u2018apply\u2019 to join). Go to https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/153107451706485\/?fref=ts<\/a> for updates on Suffolk Branch\u00a0 events and members.<\/li>\n
  8. Any late rally cancellations due to weather\/ground conditions will be posted on Facebook and emailed to members<\/strong> registered for the rally. These decisions are usually made the day before a rally. Please check before leaving if you are unsure whether a rally is going ahead.<\/li>\n
  9. We always welcome constructive feedback<\/strong> on all aspects of our rallies to help improve future events for members\u2026 just email me please!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    So, all that\u2019s left for you to do is to find your way to Horse Events<\/a> and book your rallies.<\/p>\n

    I look forward to welcoming you to Ickworth Park in the near future.<\/p>\n
