Equestrian Canada has set new rules for the use of protective vests in Canada whenever riders are on a cross-country course.
Testing
For details about the Pony Club testing process and goals, refer to the Canadian Pony Club website.
The BCLM Testing Committee coordinates tests at the Branch (D/D1/D2/C/C1), Regional (C2/B/B2), and National (A) levels, organizes Examiners for all levels, brings Pony Club Examiners into the testing process and ensures they maintain their qualifications.
