Junior members can ride in pony classes until 31 December of the year they reach these ages:
| Classes | Last year you can ride | Born in (for 2026) |
|---|---|---|
| 128cm | Year you turn 12 | 2014 or later |
| 138cm | Year you turn 14 | 2012 or later |
| Junior (148cm) | Year you turn 16 | 2010 or later |
- 128cm classes are for ponies not over 128cm.
- 138cm: riders must be under 14 before 1 January of the current year.
- Junior competitions are open to ponies ridden by Junior members.
This applies even if you qualified earlier for a later round or final. The pony can still go on to that round with another rider of eligible age, unless the schedule says otherwise.
