Membership
​
Wainoni Park Pony Club welcomes riders of all capabilities. We cater to all levels and interests providing opportunities for members to fulfil their competitive aspirations and supporting members who simply ride for enjoyment.
​
Members have the opportunity to take part in a wide variety of equestrian activities organised by the club, access our all-weather riding facilities, and benefit from our quality coaches.
​
New Members Welcome!
New members are always welcome at Wainoni Park Pony Club. ​You do not need to be experienced to join.
Feel free to contact us to arrange a time to see our grounds and facilities, meet our members and horses, and find out more about joining.
You need to have your own horse or pony to be a riding member of Wainoni Park Pony Club.
We offer a Riders Without Horses
programme for those who are keen
to learn about caring for a pony before
buying one.
