Please make yourself familiar with the Pony Club Australia National Gear Rules and continue to enjoy our sport which offers so much variety, fun and learning for so many.
The final responsibility, especially for rider attire and saddlery, rests with the rider. Gear check is a compliance check as well as a safety check, but it is the responsibility of riders to also ensure their gear is safe. A rider is not permitted to ride with non-compliant gear.
A rider may request permission to use a prohibited piece of gear for a specific horse, in special circumstances by submitting a Gear Exemption form.
Any member may submit new gear rules or amendments they wish to be considered in the National Gear Rules to PCA and the National Gear Rules Committee on the Gear Change form.
