What is the Howden Centre Equitation Competition?

The Howden Centre Equitation Competition is an exciting opportunity for Centres to form Teams and compete against other Centres. The Competition is hosted online, meaning that Pony Club Linked Riding Centres across the UK and Overseas can take part.

Members ride a Dressage Test and a course of Show Jumps. They are marked on their position and how they ride the pony/horse they are partnered with.

How it works

A team consists of two members at Walk & Trot dressage and 50cm jumping level, and two members at Walk, Trot & Canter and 60cm jumping level.

Each member’s Equitation test and jumping round will be marked by judges, and their scores will contribute towards their Team’s overall score. Each Team member is also placed as an individual too. To see how it works, see last year’s results on Pony Club Results.

Entries for the 2025 competition will open on the 1st of March 2025 and close on the 14th of September 2025. Entries can be submitted any time within these two dates.

Team Photos & Mascots

Let’s celebrate your Centres! Why not take some photos of your Centre Equitation Team and send them into us to share? We would love to see them!

Perhaps your team also has nominated a mascot to support them through this competition – this could be a super coach who has helped filmed your videos, or another animal at the stables, or perhaps a lucky teddy bear? We would love to hear about them if so. Please send any pictures to us by emailing centreequitation@pcuk.org

If you have any other photos, or any good news stories related to the competition, that you would like us to share, please send these to us by emailing centreequitation@pcuk.org
