Championships Qualifiers

Members should attend a qualifying event in advance of playing at the Championships. This is so we can make sure that all players and their ponies will be safe to play at Championships and have enough knowledge of the rules. These events are run around the UK in the months preceding the Championships and we will have a mixture of one day events and two days events for 2024, including a couple of the UKPA Club tournaments to make it easier for those members who both members of Pony Club and the UKPA.

You don’t have to win to qualify, you will all be welcome at the Championships and you will get a qualifier rosette when you attend one of these events!

You can attend any of these events, it doesn’t have to be your local one (though obviously that might be easiest)
