25.01.2022 2020 really hasn't been the greatest of years!!

23.01.2022 Murrumbateman riders put on a superb display at the Zone 16 Mounted Games competition yesterday. Murrumbateman Muffins came first in their division Murrumbateman Mustangs with two riders doing their first ever MG comp came third in their division Murrumbateman Mounties trying out for State came first in their division... Not only did all the teams do well in the competition, but all the riders demonstrated excellent horsemanship and team work. Well done! Plus a huge thanks to Rob McLachlan, Debra Butt and Rachel Butt for managing the teams and to Mark Thorek and all the parents who helped out during the many practice sessions and on the day of the competition. We would love some photos of the Muffins in action and of the fifth Mounties rider so please post them if you have some.

22.01.2022 NOTICE: Please be advised that we have had to postpone our 23rd August Gymkhana to Sunday, 27th September. For any events to occur at GGPC will rely on using o...ur generous neigbour's paddock for parking and it currently has a creek running through it. As you can appreciate 30 odd floats/trucks would damage their paddock and so parking there isn't an option at the moment. Those that entered will be contacted via Nominate, should you require a refund or wish to carry over your entry to the 27th. We thank you for your understanding.

21.01.2022 Four happy MPC riders at the Monaro Shield last Sunday.

18.01.2022 It is with enormous regret that Pony Club Association NSW advises of its decision to cancel all 2020 State Championships. PCANSW had hoped to follow the revised schedule for 2020 to maintain an air of positivity for our sport, regrettably the time has come for us to concede that this is not possible. PCANSW have participated in a number of all-sport briefings with the NSW Government to receive the latest information from NSW Health and the Acting Minister of Sport. The adv...ice at the last meeting was to ‘avoid large, inter-regional championships’. On Monday 17th August 2020, PCANSW received the advice of before the advice of the Chief Medical Officer, Dr Kerry Chant, which requested that all community sport organisations cease any activities that result in overnight stays due to increased risk of COVID transmission in these situations for a period of six (6) weeks commencing 19th August 2020. Three of the re-scheduled State Championship events fell within the six-week period to the which restrictions currently apply, with further events scheduled to occur with the 4 weeks following on from the current restriction. Acknowledging that this is a dynamic situation and recognising that the present restrictions are likely to be extended further, it was felt that the appropriate response would be to cancel all State Championship events for the remainder of 2020. This decision has not been made lightly as PCANSW recognises the broader responsibility we have to contribute positively to stop the transmission of COVID within NSW. PCANSW would like to recognise the enormous effort that goes into the planning and preparation of these events for organising committees, volunteers, competitors, and families. We understand that there will be disappointment because of this decision, however, it was felt that members would benefit most from clear directives for the remainder of 2020. 2020 has been a year that none of us will forget in a hurry, with drought, fires, flood and now COVID so affecting some many of our members, and now the cancellation of State Championships. PCANSW will now re-focus our activities towards providing further training and development opportunities for members for the balance of the year and planning for 2021.

15.01.2022 Murrumbateman PC had another fabulous day at Zone 16 Jamboree Showjumping and Dressage Championships.

15.01.2022 Please see below link for an update from the Office of Sport and Dr Kerry Chant and attached information from Sport NSW, regarding non-essential travel within t...he state and its impact on community sport. As per Dr Chants recommendations the PCA NSW State Executive will conduct a full review on the viability of this years State Championships and confirm the outcome as soon as possible via a separate communication. However at this it is highly likely that all 2020 State Championships may be cancelled, not just those in to be held in the next six to eight weeks. As per the recommendations club activities may still go ahead under certain conditions as long as clubs have up to date Covid Safety Plans and complete a risk assessment for each activity to determine the risk to attendees regarding these recommendations. PCA NSW recommends that in addition to all Covid Safe Practices including staying home if you are unwell, restriction of participants from affected areas, social distancing and good hygiene attendees that attendees wear face masks when not riding, this includes all spectators and volunteers on the grounds. Clubs must cease any activities that result in overnight stays (camps) due to increased risk of COVID transmission with shared facilities. Ceasing of zone, regional or state championships or competitions for the next six weeks as these activities bring together participants including spectators and officials from different regions of the state. Riders who have nominated for the immediately affected State Championships will receive full refunds and nominations for further championships have been suspended until a risk assessment is completed by the State Executive for the balance of the years activities. Zones hosting Regional Schools, Instructor Schools and Assessments must review their Covid Safety Plans and risk assessments to determine the viability of the activity under these recommendations. As these activities have limits on attendees and do not include overnight stays/camping for participants they may go ahead with extra Covid precautions to be taken, including the wearing of face masks by all attendees when not riding.

11.01.2022 Being a rally day, of course the weather was a bit ordinary. But that didn't stop our riders or instructors. We welcomed two small but very competent Come and Try riders and a couple of our regulars brought horses new to pony club. Anna Marsden also joined us again to instruct our senior troop, thanks Anna!

03.01.2022 From Saturday 26 September, interregional community sporting competitions can recommence without restricting these activities to regions or zones, where there i...s a COVID19 Safety Plan for the community sporting activity in place. The advice provided in August regarding limiting spectators to one parent per child, and inter-region sport and recreation activities has been removed, however organisations must still ensure their activity is delivered in compliance with the Public Health Order and the COVID-19 Safety Plan requirements. This includes the requirement to adhere to the 500-person limit for community sport activities (including participants, officials and spectators) and adhering to the one person per four square metre rule. Organisations and spectators must also ensure that physical distancing of at least 1.5 metres is maintained between people that do not come from the same household. If this is unable to be achieved wearing a mask is recommended. Clubs are instructed to update their risk assessments with this new advice.
