Quiz
Quiz is an engaging and educational activity for Pony Club® members to test and expand their equestrian knowledge in a fun and friendly team environment.
Unlike many other Pony Club®
activities, Quiz does not require a horse, making it an ideal option for those who do not have a mount or prefer less physically demanding sports. Participants work together in teams, answering questions on a variety of topics related to horse care, riding, and equestrian sports.




Key Features of Quiz:
- Team-Based: Members participate in teams of four, fostering teamwork and camaraderie.
- Knowledge Testing: Questions cover a wide range of equestrian topics, allowing members to demonstrate and deepen their understanding.
- Inclusive: Without the need for a horse, Quiz is accessible to all members, including those who might be temporarily without a mount.
- Fun and Friendly: The environment is designed to be supportive and enjoyable, encouraging learning and participation.
What Opportunities Do I Have?
Pony Club® members participating in Quiz have numerous opportunities to showcase their knowledge and represent their clubs at various levels:
- Local Competitions: Start by participating in local Quiz competitions within your Pony Club®. These events are a great way to get familiar with the format and enjoy a day of learning and fun with friends.
- Regional and State Competitions: As you gain experience, you can compete in regional and state-level Quizzes. These larger events bring together teams from different clubs, offering a more competitive and exciting atmosphere.
- National Competitions: For those who excel at the state level, there are opportunities to compete at national Quiz competitions. Representing your state on a national stage is a prestigious accomplishment and a chance to meet Pony Club® members from across the country.
- International Competitions: Exceptional teams may have the chance to participate in international Quiz competitions. These events allow you to represent your country, experience different cultures, and form international friendships.
- Age-Specific Categories: Quiz competitions are divided into three age sections, ensuring that participants compete against peers of similar age and knowledge level:
- Seniors: 17 – under 26 years
- Juniors: 13 – under 17 years
- Sub-Juniors: 10 – under 13 years
- Educational Growth: Participating in Quiz not only tests your current knowledge but also helps you learn more about equestrian topics. The preparation for competitions can significantly improve your understanding of horse care, riding techniques, and equestrian history.
- Leadership and Teamwork: Being part of a Quiz team develops important skills such as leadership, teamwork, and communication. These skills are valuable both within and outside the Pony Club® environment.
Quiz is a fantastic way to engage with Pony Club activities, even without a horse. It offers a structured yet enjoyable way to enhance your equestrian knowledge, compete at various levels, and form lasting friendships within the Pony Club®
community.
