Introduction

It is important that we know when incidents and injuries occur during Pony Club activities or involve our members. The type of record and report made depends upon the nature of the incident and the injuries sustained. It should be noted that injuries to members, coaches and volunteers are included in these requirements. If in doubt, report it.

Record Keeping
