Generally 2 sessions are held in the morning with a break for morning tea at 11:15. Lunch is around 1:00pm and there is one or two sessions after lunch. These are indicative times and can vary on the day.
All riders must remain unmounted until gear checked by a club official and advised to mount. If you ride to pony club you must dismount as soon as you arrive.
All parents and riders assist with setting up, packing up equipment, show jumps etc, at conclusion of rally. Riders are required to stay with their allocated group and walk your horse between lessons.
When all riders have been checked, they will be organised into groups for their first session.
Size and composition of groups depends on many factors including – which members are present, which instructors are available, what activities are organised. Generally riders of similar ability and/or age are grouped together.
