The Pony Club is one of the largest equestrian youth organisations in the world and Foxhills is pleased to be part of it as an accredited Pony Club Centre. You do not have to own your own pony to come to Pony Club but you do have to have a strong interest in learning how to look after one.
Our Centre operates on Wednesday evenings 5pm to 7pm during term time. A little like the scouts and guides. We quite often have 30 plus children aged 7 to 14+ who are split into smaller groups and each group working towards different aspects of horse/pony care culminating in the award of badges of competence that can be sown onto their Foxhills Pony club jumpers/sweatshirt which are available and personalised from Jonty Equestrian, Lodge Farm, Bosty Lane, Aldridge.

Pony Club is a great way to learn whilst having fun and meeting new like minded friends. No experience is necessary and total beginners are very welcome as well as riders who want to further their knowledge. Foxhills Pony Club is non ridden but there is plenty of hands on with the ponies including grooming, plaiting, leading and lots more. Much of the time is in the classroom or during summer outside in the open air.
You can pay for more than one week at a time ie; 2,4,6, 10 weeks etc and this will be credited to the members account. If a member misses a week for illness or holiday etc the payment for that week will automatically be moved forward as a credit to be used for future weeks.
It is very important that Pony Clubbers arrive dressed appropriately for the weather, We do operate all year round and we consistently see children either under or over dressed. If you possess a riding hat it is recommended to bring it with you or you can use one of ours when needed. All hats must meet current equestrian safety standards with a British standards kite mark and a PAS No of 2011 or newer
