The Pony Club Association of Victoria, commonly abbreviated as PCAV, is the controlling body for Pony Clubs in Victoria where young people can ride and learn all disciplines of equestrian sports. The Association co-ordinates, develops and promotes horsemanship in Victoria and instruction for its members. Children and young adults to the age of 25 learn the skills of riding and general horsemanship and compete in local events, but can also go on to compete at state, national and international events, including the Olympics. Pony Club is one of the few sports were males and females compete on equal terms. Victoria is divided into 10 Zones currently comprising 210 Clubs. Each club is organized and arranged separately, but the Zone also has an organizing Committee. Each Zone also has a Chief Instructor whose duty is to supervise and encourage the instruction policy within the Zone. Each Zone sends Councillors to Association meetings to determine general policy. In each Zone there are as many as 30 different Pony Clubs. ==Aims and Objectives〔(PCAV Mission )〕== *To encourage young people to ride and to learn to enjoy all approved types of sport connected with horses and riding *To provide instruction in horsemanship and riding and to instill in the members the proper care of their animals. *To promote the highest ideals of sportsmanship, citizenship and loyalty, thereby cultivating strength of character and self-discipline. *To coordinate Clubs affiliated with the Association and to act in affiliation with the Australian Pony Club Council (APCC), the Equestrian Federation of Australia (EFA), and the Youth Council of Victoria. *To establish Zones for close contact and liaison between the Clubs. *To operate and control the policy of the Clubs. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pony Club Association of Victoria」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
