REGISTRATION for 2024/2025 IS NOW CLOSED. WE look forward to welcoming you next year. ~Visit back Aug/Sept 2025~
WANT TO JOIN PONY CLUB?
The minimum age limit to join Pony Club is 6 years as of the date of joining. You can stay in Pony Club as an active member until you are 25 years old. After that you can become a Horse Master. New members that are over 21 would also apply to become a Horse Master.
All members that sign up for pony club also will need to become members of the Canadian Ponyclub, the national organization. It is mandatory for Pony Club members to become members of the Provincial Equine Sports Organization in our province. In BC that is the HCBC (Horse Council of BC). Joining HCBC also provides you with personal liability insurance, which is a smart choice for any horse handler.
Pony Club isn’t just about riding a horse or pony – it’s a program designed to help members learn everything there is to know about these animals…it’s giving them the opportunity to try different disciplines of the sport (show-jumping, dressage, rally, tetrathlon, etc.) and most importantly, providing them with connections to other horse lovers in their town, province and region who share this passion. Pony Clubbers make lifetime friendships in a club designed for the horse-crazy!
*Unfortunately Boundary Bay Pony Club does not offer riding lessons, nor does it provide horses or ponies. If you wish to participate in mounted activities, you will have to bring your own or lease or borrow one from a third party.
PARENT VOLUNTEERING
We do not receive financial support from any governmental agencies and thus depend on our fees and fundraising to offer our programs. The success of our programs depends entirely on the participation of volunteers in a variety of capacities that could include anything from helping out with a fundraiser to serving on a branch committee. Many hands make light work and everyone brings a unique set of gifts and talents to the mix. Everyone has something to offer.
Each BBPC member must have a parent, or guardian contribute a minimum of 20 hours of volunteer time during the Pony Club year. Not only will your child benefit from the many horse-related activities, you will also meet other BBPC parents, learn about BBPC regional activities, and find resources to support your child develop their passion and knowledge of all things equine.
*There are certain activities that have specific volunteer requirements and these activities will NOT contribute towards the minimum 20 hours (Quiz and PPG games days).

The Club tries to secure ponies for use at practices so that as many members can try out this sport. The costs for these horses is borne by the club as part of the base membership dues. Please note that we are not always able to secure ponies. Practices may be divided and ponies will be shared.
