PONY CLUB PROFICIENCY CERTIFICATES

All pony club riders will achieve Pony Club Australia Proficiency Certificates as part of their journey at pony club. The certificates begin at E, D, D*, C, C*, K, B and conclude at A. The A certificate is recognised internationally.

Riders aged 14 years or old and who have been at pony club for more than 2 years, must have achieved the C at a minimum in order to compete at state events.

The new syllabus continues to build on Pony Club members’ riding, horsemastership and horse knowledge skills blending 80 years of sound knowledge and training, with new scientific knowledge about rider safety, horse behaviour and welfare.
