About our Club

 The Western District Pony Club is proud organization built on the dedication and enthusiasm of all our members.

We are a committed team of people who will work with you to ensure you have an enjoyable learning experience whilst participating in various equestrian activities.

Each Pony Club belongs to one of the ten Zones in the Pony Club Association of Victoria, our club is part of the Wannon Zone of Pony Clubs. Zones and Clubs are self-contained, self-governing and self-supporting.

In Victoria, Pony Club membership is open to people under 26 years of age, of any riding ability. Ordinary members are those under 17 years of age, whilst Associate Members are those 17 years and under 26 years of age. Riding Membership ceases at 26 years, but a number of former riders remain with their Club as Adult Supporters, Committee members and Instructors, thus continuing their interest and involvement. Membership of Pony Club provides children and young adults with the opportunity to build and develop character, responsibility and consideration for others through their involvement with a living animal, which is an excellent medium for developing these attributes.

The Pony Club movement is an international voluntary youth organization for young people interested in horses and riding. It is represented in 15 countries and has a membership exceeding 102,000 – making it the largest association of riders in the world.
