Membership is opento any young man or woman who shares our affinity for horses or ponies, and it is not necessary for a child to own a horse or pony, as long as they have access to one when needed. Programs are offered in dressage, eventing, show jumping, mounted games, tetrathlon, quiz, vaulting, foxhunting, and polocrosse. During "unmounted" meetings members learn about feeding, shoeing, veterinary care, and other areas of horse management.
The Pony Club Pledge: “As a member of the United States Pony Club, I stand for the best in sportsmanship as well as in horsemanship. I shall compete for the enjoyment of the game well played and take winning or losing in stride, remembering that without good manners and good temper, sport loses its cause for being. I shall endeavor to maintain the best tradition of the ancient and noble skill of horsemanship, always treating my horse with consideration due a partner.”
