Arena Rules
- Please collect and dispose of any manure.
- For the consideration of other riders and to prevent accidents, the following conduct is required.
- No lunging in the arena if there are any riders in the arena - use the round yard.
- Round yard (lunge yard) is dedicated for lunging, if someone is using it to ride or for any other purpose, they must vacate the yard as lunging has first priority.
- You should always give way to the horse at the higher gait (faster horse). Slower horses are to use the inside track.
- When approaching head to head you should keep to the left.
- Make tack adjustments outside the arena if possible or near the middle of the arena but without obstructing the diagonal or centre lines.
- Ensure your whip is not so long that it could upset a passing horse.
- Do not halt or walk on the outside track and always leave room for other riders to pass.
Dogs on TPC Grounds
Dogs on grounds are viewed by PCAQ and the TPC committee as a potential safety issue. However, we understand that some members may wish to bring their dogs onto the grounds for exercise etc and the committee has no wish to penalise responsible dog owners. Accordingly, the committee has considered the issue of dogs on TPC grounds and we now confirm the Club's policy as follows:
No dogs at all to be brought on to club grounds on any day on which an unofficial or official event is being held including rally days or clinics and RDA days (Friday and Saturday mornings).
At all other times, dogs must be on a lead and under the control of their owner. Any dogs wandering the grounds must be tied up and the owner (if known) will be notified to come and remove immediately.
Vehicles on Club Grounds
We now have a lovely asphalt driveway. When driving onto club grounds with or without floats please use the road as much as possible. Some larger vehicles have driven off the road and caused some of the roadway to break away, so please exercise care.
Also, if you wish to dispose of manure from your float, please do not leave this in the car park area but carry it over to the manure pile by the yards. Wheelbarrows and rakes are available in the gear shed. We ask that you are thoughtful of the agistees and workers at our working bee who end up having to remove the manure left behind!!!! We had approx 20 floats at a rally day so you can imagine the "mess" left behind?
