Bean Bag Every competitor will have 5 practice throws at a target, then 10 throws that will be scored.
Shoot Only members aged 8 and over on the day of the competition can shoot and members should have been trained with their Pony Club before competing. The targets will be at a distance of 7m and static.
Run A course will be marked out in a field. Runners will be set off in groups. The faster they get round the more points they will score. No run numbers will be required – just your name.
Ride We have a mini cross country course which will be opened flagged so that competitors can choose which height fence they would like to jump. Each fence will be judged but the course will not be timed. There will be a slip rail where riders will need to dismount, drop the rail, lead their pony over the rail, then raise the rail within one minute to complete that obstacle. Riders will be allowed assistance to remount. There will also be a small gate to open and close, within one minute, whilst mounted. If assistance is required with the gate there will be a small penalty.
We intend to be flexible on the day but as a guide times will be emailed to team trainers and published on the Pony Club Results website by Thursday 25th April. Please clearly print your own riding number to be worn in a number bib. The course will be open for walking from 6pm on Friday 26th April, or you can walk it on the day.
Rules The competition will be run under the Pony Club Tetrathlon Rules 2024, which can be found on the PC Website.
