Riding Club

 

Polocrosse is a brilliant sport for riding clubs as it is something different for both the riders and the horses to do and helps improve the schooling of the horses and the balance and flexibility of the riders. It is also a very socialable sport so riding club members can be assured they will make many new friends amongst the polocrosse community.

The UKPA see riding clubs a natural way of growing the sport of polocrosse as it is a team sport and so an already established group of riders is a perfect place to set up a new club. The UKPA can help clubs source equipment and arrange coaches to deliver introductory sessions to interested riding clubs. The UKPA wants to work with riding clubs throughout the country to the benefit of both the riding club and the sport itself.

The UKPA has created a dedicated document to explain more about the sport and the benefits in can bring to your riding club - click here to read it.

The UKPA is also presently running a subisidised starter kit offer whereby you can purchase starter kit of polocrosse at a reduced price for your riding club. Click here to read the details of this offer and find out how you can take it up.

If you have any questions or would like more information please don't hesitate to contact the UKPA sport development officer, Iain Heaton on sportsdevelopment@ukpolocrosse.co.uk or call him on 07799 360439. He will do all he can to help you launch polocrosse within your riding school.
