17th August 2008 Owing to the dreadfully wet weather we have currently been experiencing the Pony Club were forced to cancel the Hunter Trial scheduled for the 17 th August at Ballawilleykilley, however with the co-operation of Mrs Gilbey at GGH a Combined Training was held instead. Competitors who had already entered for the Hunter Trial were given the opportunity to transfer their entry and together with new entries there was a full day of competition. The standard in both the dressage and the showjumping was extremely high with Tricia Kissack riding a fabulous test which was the best dressage test of the day, closely followed by Claire Bagshaw and Sue Kirkpatrick who both rode beautiful tests which were a pleasure to watch. Both Tara Adams and Laura Gill produced two lovely clear rounds in the 115cm class, both competitors finising in the ribbons. It was most encouraging to see so many young members learning and riding these new dressage tests this certainly bodes well for the Club's teams of the future. The full results were as follows:- Class 1a Intro Junior Class 1b Intro Senior Class 2a Prelim Junior Class 2b Prelim Senior Class 3 Novice Class 4 Intermediate Class 5 Open Once again the Pony Club is indebted to the band of helpers who willingly give up their time to help at these events, but special thanks go to the dressage judges of the day Sue Kirkpatrick, Ann Quigley and Angela Kennedy and also the showjumping judge Angela Whitlow. Thanks also to Arthur Taggart for giving up his whole day to marshal the road crossings and parking. The next event open to non members will be the cross country green days. These will be held at Ballawilleykilley on 2nd and 3rd September 4.00 - 7.00pm each day. These green days are held to give competitors the opportunity to jump most of the cross country fences which will be used in the One Day Event but please note there is no tuition provided and numbers will be strictly limited priority will be given to Pony Club members. These will be followed on the 14th September by the annual One Day Event to be held at Ballawilleykilley once again this is open to non members. There are classes suitable for most abilities with fence heights ranging from 65cm 115cm. For Pony Club members there will be a Cross Country Rally and Garran Beg at GGH on Saturday 30th September.

19th April 2008 Pony Club held their annual Mini One Day Event on Saturday 19th April 2008 at Croit-ny-Cabbyl, Lonan (Kind permission of Mr & Mrs P Bond) and it was wonderful that over half the competitors in the largest class were boys. This event is to encourage younger members and give them a taste of eventing they have to ride a dressage test, complete a showjumping course and then ride a cross country course. In spite of the bitterly cold wind they all returned from their cross country round with grins from ear to ear. For most of these young competitors it was the first time they had competed cross country. This was certainly the case for the winner of the second class Sean Drewry who said he had really enjoyed riding at his first competitive cross country event. Sean also won the prize for the best dressage on the day. The prizewinners were as follows:- 8 & Under 9 & Over The committee would like to thank Peter and Linda Bond for the use of their land and also a big thank you Peter for constructing such an inviting cross country course for these youngsters, Hilary for judging the showjumping and Becky Venn for judging the dressage. The next Pony Club event will be a members only Showjumping Competition at Kennaa Equestrian Centre on Sunday 27th April but this will be followed by the first One Day event of the season. The One Day Event will be open to non members and will be held on Sunday 4th April at Croit-ny-Cabbyl, Lonan. There will be classes for Intro, Novice and Intermediate levels. Entries for this event close on the 24th April.Photos from the event are available to view and purchase from www.manxequinephotos.co.uk |

Easter Monday In freezing conditions with a biting cold wind the Pony Club held their first Hunter Trial of the season at Croit-ny-Cabbyl, Lonan (kind permission of Mr & Mrs P Bond). Peter had spent weeks constructing a most interesting course which was safe but also challenging. Under new Pony Club Health and Safety regulations before holding an event it is now necessary to have the course inspected and passed by a BE course builder and the BE representative agreed that is was an excellent course. This proved to be the case on the day as there were very few clear rounds but also very few accidents. Under extremely wintry conditions more than 80 competitors completed the day safely, most finishing with a grin from ear to ear! The results were as follows:- Class 1 Intro Pairs Class 2 Junior Intro Class 3 Senior Intro Class 4 Pairs Class 4 Junior Novice Class 5 Senior Novice Class 6 Intermediate The Pony Club would like to thank Peter Bond for all his hours of hard work and commitment keeping a check on the whole event by standing on his viewing platform in spite of the gales, also all those willing workers who gave up their time today to help us, without their valuable co-operation these events could not run. We would like to say a special thank you to those stewards who stood about in the arctic wind opening and shutting gates etc. and still managed to stay cheerful. The next Pony Club event for members will be a Horse Care session at 2.00pm on Thursday 27th March at Kionslieu Foxdale. £2. Entries to Chris Chatel please. Also LINE DANCING WITH MICHAEL' this will be held on Friday 4 th April 7.00pm at Union Mills New Football Clubhouse. Dig out all your cowboy gear! This is a great fun night and suitable for all the family. Non members invited. Tickets are £5 children and £7 adults including supper - numbers to Viv Taylor 611606 by previous Wednesday 2 nd April Photos from the event are available to view and purchase from www.manxequinephotos.co.uk |
