What can you achieve at Higher Farm Pony Club?
Achievement badges
During our training sessions and rally days, children have the opportunity to work at their own pace towards earning Pony Club achievement badges. The Pony Club Achievement Badge Scheme is an engaging way for children to expand their knowledge of horsemanship and the countryside. On the first Saturday of each month, participants can select which badge they would like to be tested on and reserve a spot in the badge testing session. With over 50 badges and 20 mini-badges available, there is a wide variety of topics to explore.
The list below provides an overview of the badges that are offered and the topics covered.

These are awarded to Members who have studied a variety of topics on pony care and the environment. The circular fabric badges are designed to be sewn onto Branch or Centre sweatshirts. On gaining 21 achievement badges, a gold badge and certificate can be awarded.
Pony Club Efficiency Tests and Progressive Certificates
Each member progresses at their own pace towards achieving the various Pony Club Tests and badges.
Tests for each level are conducted regularly once a sufficient number of members have reached the required standard.
As children work towards meeting the standards for D, D+, C, and C+, they have the opportunity to earn bronze, silver, gold, and platinum certificates in riding and horsemanship as they enhance their skills.
These are intended to assess riding and horse and pony care.
