Ground Hire

Huntingfield Pony Club is running a trial so members can use the grounds for training without the need for an instructor. 

The trial runs from December until the end of March and costs $30 for an individual and $55 for a family.

The price is inclusive regardless of how many times you ride during the trial period.

Ground hire includes the use of both arenas, the show jumps and cross country (xc) fences up to 80cm in height.

When it comes to the xc fences:

only use fences shown on the cross country app for the grade 3, 4 and 5 course 

and the jumps in the two xc training areas

Further conditions apply e.g. the offer is only available to Huntingfield members who have held a membership with us for 6 months.

Message from the DC

Saturday February 21st is a working bee at Monmouth from 9am in preparation for Trials.  

All clubs are expected to help so please put this in your diary and get out there.  

They are especially in need of some man power, but there are jobs for all. 

Each club is tasked with providing a large number of volunteers to help with the State Trials in March.

Trials will be held on the long weekend in March at TEC and Monmouth Pony Club.  The event runs as follows:

Saturday 7th March Dressage at TEC

Sunday 8th March Cross Country at Monmouth Pony Club

Monday 9th March Show Jumping at TEC

This is a State Championship for Eventing, and even if you are not competing, it is well worth watching or volunteering to help.

An enormous amount of work has already gone into preparing for this event and will continue to do so until March.  

We are just asking you to volunteer for the event itself, so please be generous with your time and come and experience the excitement of Trials!

Please contact me at huntingfieldponyclub@gmail.com to be a Trials volunteer (no experience needed).

Many Thanks,

Clare Stewart
