The Irish Pony Club
Inspirational Awards 2016

The Irish Pony Club Inspirational Award will be presented at the Race Day at the Curragh on Sunday 25th September 2016. Awards will be made to not more than ten deserving members from any of the Pony Club Areas throughout the country. This award will acknowledge and celebrate inspirational members by shining a light on those who have made a special contribution to their branch and whose efforts make a positive and significant difference to our Pony Club Community.

Do you have a member who has made an inspirational contribution to their branch or excelled in various aspects of Pony Club? 

Do you have a member who has overcome adversity and whose story has inspired or has the capacity to inspire fellow members? 

Is there a member who has shown extraordinary commitment to their branch? Has this member helped to create a better pony club experience for others? 

Does your branch have a member who has demonstrated they have achieved one of the IPC objectives?… To promote the highest ideals of sportsmanship, citizenship and loyalty, thereby cultivating strength of character and self-discipline. 

Heroes aren’t always the member who wins the red rosette but one who can participate quietly among us and is a natural promoter of our ideals showing the true spirit of the Pony Club.

Far too often extraordinary acts go unnoticed so we ask branches to nominate their ‘inspirational member’ to ensure they get the recognition they deserve.

Please send the completed Nomination Form (available on the on the Race Day page of the IPC Website) to your Area Representative. This should be submitted by the 1st of September, either by post or email.
