Let's include this for one of our rallies this year.

Horse Archery Rule Book now available

Has your Club been waiting to try Horse Archery? The Rule Book to guide you is now available to download from the PCA website, along with details of four experienced horse archery coaches who helped set this up, and online shop details.

Together with the Horse Archery Discipline of the Month, you can be on your way to enjoying this exciting and relatively new Pony Club sport.

The Rule Book (Under Sports on the website) contains certificate assessment sheets for those who want to work their way up through Walk, Trot and Canter.

PCA is planning a Zoom coaching session with a wonderful horse archery coach later this month, where Clubs can learn how to get started and ask any questions, or view the recording later. Details soon.
