What is Pony Club?
At Minninnooka Polo & Riding School, we are proud to be an official Pony Club Centre, welcoming children of all ages, abilities and riding interests into a supportive and encouraging equestrian community.
Whether your child dreams of playing polo, improving their riding, learning to jump, developing horsemanship skills or simply building confidence around horses, Pony Club provides a fantastic environment to learn, make friends and grow both in and out of the saddle.
Our aim is to create a fun, inclusive and family-friendly atmosphere where children can enjoy horses, develop at their own pace and become part of a strong team culture.
A Pathway for Progression
Many young riders begin with lessons and Pony Club activities before progressing into our Development and Training Squads, where they receive more structured coaching, additional riding opportunities and access to rallies, competitions and team events.
Our pathway helps riders build confidence, develop their skills and work towards their individual goals, whether that is becoming a more capable rider, competing regularly or exploring opportunities within the wider equestrian industry.
