Team Selection

Under National rules members must have participated in at least 3 working rallies within the year. Those who have attended camp (any of the three weeks) in either participating, instructing or, where extremley necessary, helping (unless a medical condition dictates otherwise) will be given priority. Teams will be selected by a selection panel of 3 consisting of one or two DC's, a Trainer and a committee member and it is at their discretion. (None of the above can have children involved). The overall picture will be taken into consideration, ie commitment to training and Pony Club activities. The 2 best results from competition will be taken and preferably those run by Tipperary Pony Club, or other Pony Club competitions. Trials must be attended by all candidates in all disciplines eg. Swimming, Games etc.
