Without our Horses and Ponies
we have no Pony Club
​
​
The welfare of our riders and their horses is the highest priority of our club and all our rallies, events and activities are conducted according to the rules and by-laws of Pony Club Queensland (PCQ).
​
A rider shall be confined to the use of one mount and that a horse may only have one rider at any event.
A horse must be either owner-ridden or leased (except where special rules permit otherwise).
No stallion, colt or rig is eligible to take part in or attend any event, competition or otherwise, at any function conducted by Kuranda Horse and Pony Club.
​
Any act or series of actions which, in the opinion of the club’s Chief Instructor, can clearly and without doubt be defined as abuse of horse or dangerous riding, shall be dealt within the relevant PCQ Code of Conduct.
​
Similarly, any rider who affects the safety of any horse, rider or third party will be considered to have acted dangerously, and will be penalised as determined by relevant Code of Conduct (up to and including withdrawal of membership).
Riders are required to provide a completed Horse Health declaration at club events.
It is preferred that dogs are not brought to the pony club grounds; if they are, they are to be securely tied and restricted the the confines of the owners’ horse float.
