The Pony Club Quiz is sponsored by Dodson and Horrell (D&H).

The 2025 Area Quiz will take place on the 9th March 2025. 

The Pony Club quiz is an inclusive competition for our ridden and non-ridden Centre and Branch members. It provides a chance for members to test their equestrian knowledge in a fun and friendly team environment. Working with D&H who are experts in the field of animal health, nutrition and well-being will help The Pony Club Quiz to stay relevant and current in an Equestrian World that is continuously progressing.
