Marion Riding Club

Marion Riding Club Welcoming all ages & abilities in a relaxed environment. A friendly club, welcoming all levels and abilities. a. b. c. d.

The Marion Riding Club Inc started as a Pony Club in 1960 and moved to the beautiful Shepherds Hill Recreation Park in 1970. We aim to ride and train our horses in a quiet, relaxed atmosphere, with members enjoying the social aspects of horse riding too. Event days are held throughout the year, with help from experienced trainers if requested. We focus on Working Equitation, hoping to establish a greater participation in SA. We share the core values of the national Working Equitation Down Under Association. Equine Welfare: Accepting that our relationship with our equine partners is a privilege, we believe that safeguarding the welfare of the horse is paramount. Respect: For each other, for the safety of ourselves and our horses, and for the health of the environment in which we all live and work. Inclusivity: Working together, we provide a meaningful equestrian experience for all of our members, from grassroots participation through to elite performers. Excellence: We reflect the highest aspirations of our members and work to inspire and empower them to reach their full potential through outstanding performance. We welcome new members & those who may just like to give it a try can choose Day
Membership. Nervous riders and young horses are given utmost consideration.

๐ŸŒŸ What an incredible day! ๐ŸŒŸ

Our first-ever Tri-Series Championship Show & Hobby Horse Event is officially done and dustedโ€”and what a way to wrap up the season! Even though the rain cut our final phase short, our riders didnโ€™t let it spoil the day. The energy, enthusiasm, and great vibes from everyone made the whole event something really special.

The Hobby Horse event was a huge hit and weโ€™re so grateful for the support from the City of Mitchamโ€™s Grants Program. We had loads of positive feedback and plenty of people keen to see it return in 2026 and beyond, which is fantastic to hear.

A big thank you to all our generous sponsors for the Tri-Series prizes:

๐Ÿ† Champions (L1, L2, L3, L5 & Junior) โ€“ Embroidered Hay Bags sponsored by Catherine Hutchesson MP, Equine Wellness Club, Barecare Barefoot Trimming, Crystanby Morgans, and Oakridge German Shorthaired Pointers; Rosette Garlands sponsored by Pony and Bow; and Bales of Lucerne sponsored by Hermitage Bunch.

๐ŸŒŸ All Reserve Champions (L1, L2, L3) โ€“ Trophies sponsored by Bezaryn Farm PRE Spanish Horses and Bags of Treats sponsored by Horseland.

๐ŸŒŸ Series Overall Most Improved โ€“ Trophy sponsored by Equine Wellness Club and Bag of Treats sponsored by Horseland.

Please support these wonderful sponsors when you canโ€”they make a big difference to our club.

Huge thanks as well to our judges Pat Hutchens and Helen Whittle, our amazing volunteers and helpers and to Martin from Horse Trials SA for capturing the day. Weโ€™ll be sharing more photos soon, so keep an eye out! If you spot a favourite, make sure to grab a copy and support his work.

And of course, a massive thank you to our committee. The amount of work that happens behind the scenes is huge, and weโ€™re so grateful for everything you do to bring these events together.

Hereโ€™s to a brilliant season, and plenty more to come! ๐ŸŽโœจ
