If you ever dreamt of going to pony club camp as a child but never got the opportunity or sent your kids off to their camps with a twinge of envy, guess what? NOW IT'S YOUR TURN! People come back year in year out. I've seen them start without a jump in their pony and now they're off having amazing adventures all over the place!
Our philosophy is that no one is perfect and that everyone is trying the very best they can to improve themselves and their horses.

Come to camp and meet people like you, who put the horse first and the sport second :)
1.You will progress in jumping and/or flatwork.
2.Gain more confidence than you ever thought possible.
3.Meet some of the most incredible people and make long lasting friendships
4. Have an awesome time; just you, your horse, no kids, no cooking, no being taxi service, just fun, laughter and massive achievement!
All levels welcome, we have groups for everyone.
Want to just get your confidence? Join the baby groups, mostly flatwork & polework, building up to tiny jumps, you can hack round the XC course, no pressure and it is a great place to start.
Or maybe you want to improve your jumping or get ahead of the competition by practicing the over the cross country jumps?
Maybe your dream is to jump at BE level one day DO IT!! We'll help you prepare and when you're ready to go higher we will be with you all the way!

KIT LIST
Clothing Please bring your riding clothes and spares for the evening and in the event of the weather being undesirable. You MUST wear a hat of the current standard and a body protector when jumping. Boots must have a small sturdy heel and no heel. You will not be allowed to ride in Wellingtons.

Horses They need to be fit so make sure you've been exercising them regularly before they come to avoid injuries. We suggest you introduce some hard feed to his daily routine as he gets fitter, just as a thank you so that when he's at camp he can have a feed at the same time as the others. Carrots, apples and chaff will suffice for the laminitics / tubbies. But bring them something. He will need enough for 4 feeds.
Please bring his usual tack plus spare numnahs and girths, a spare stirrup leather and a pair of spare reins, his head collar and lead rope and a cooling rug. Your horse may come in wet from working very hard and will be uncomfortable if you leave him standing in the stable without a rug as he cools off.
Haylage can be fed from NETS ONLY. You also need 2 water buckets, feed buckets and a grooming kit. If you have room please bring wheelbarrows and mucking out equipment or arrange to share. There are none at Pontispool.
All stables are allocated, please don't swap and change. They must be left clean with the remaining straw banked up at the rear of the stable. Anyone who leaves their stable dirty will be asked to pay £20.00.
The weekend is about exploring what you and your horse can do, no one is under pressure to do anything. We just want you to spend quality time with your horses, learn what you can and have a good time!
