Interclub Ribbon Day season is about to begin, the club will be hold a Rally Day on October 2. This Rally Day will consist of flat riding, sporting, and the main reason is a grading jumping day.
The club has invited Nicola Geddes and Tom Piddington to come and grade our members as well as instructing jumping. This Rally Day is open to all members who wish to come along.
Kingstown’s interclub ribbon day will be on October 22 followed by Guyra Pony Club’s interclub day on October 23. Both at Guyra showgrounds. Both will supply a meal on Saturday night.
At the completion of Kingstown’s event, the clubs will hold a dual barrel race and a jumping competition.
The Guyra Club would like to see as many members as possible at these days and any other Interclub Ribbon Days.
As the saying goes, many hands make light work.
An Interclub Ribbon Day is open to all members.
For those who are unsure what an Interclub Ribbon Day is, it is an event held by each Pony Club a day of competition consisting of flat riding, sporting and jumping.
Flat riding involves four classes, a hack class which is judged on the horses height and conformation. The rider class is judged on the rider and judged in age groups.
Bareback rider class is judged on how well the rider can ride without a saddle and finally pairs this is judged on how well two riders can ride together.
The Sporting events consist of a range of events for example; bending, flag and barrel.
Interclub Ribbon Days can be a friendly enjoyable competition day.
We hope to see all children starting to exercise their horses.
You should be feeding your horses as well if you intend to go to the Pony Camps these holidays.
