The Highland Pony Society offers affiliated status to shows throughout the UK. This arrangement benefits both the society and participating venues by expanding exhibitor participation and boosting breed visibility.
Key Benefits of Affiliation
Shows throughout the United Kingdom have the opportunity to affiliate to the Highland Pony Society. This will encourage entries from Highland pony owners and promotion of the show will be facilitated through these being publicised on the Highland Pony Society’s website calendar and in the annual Year Book.
Youngstock Qualifiers Program
The society operates a competitive advancement system for young animals. Qualifying events are held across the UK, culminating in two championship competitions each autumn—one in Scotland and one in England. These competitions feature categories for foals, yearlings, two-year-olds, and three-year-olds alongside their dams.
