Wanneroo Horse and Pony Club

Gear Checking

​

Here are a few of the items that will be checked by instructors at Rallies to ensure the safety of riders and ponies, and comply with Pony Club WA rules:

 

• Girths: Ensure they are the correct length and there is room to tighten after 15 minute’s exercise.

• Stirrup irons: Should have a gap of between 2 cm and 3 cm after boot is inserted to ball of foot.

• Stirrup leathers: Ensure your leathers are well stitched.

• Helmets: Up-to-date and to be brought to the Horsemastership session for checking
