WELCOME TO WALLISTON
Walliston Riding and Pony Club was one of WA’s first pony clubs, established in 1958.
Walliston has served as a meeting spot for youth and equestrian enthusiasts to ride, learn, and compete.
Now a PCWA-affiliated club with over 60 years of history, we strive to maintain a strong connection across Perth and the surrounding areas.
With rallies and club competitions, riders get structured coaching from qualified Pony Club WA and EWA coaches.
Walliston has opened its doors to adult riders as of 2026.
PONY CLUB AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
Encouraging Young Riders
We aim to inspire young people to ride and enjoy a variety of equestrian sports in a fun and supportive environment. Our goal is to help them build confidence, develop skills, and discover the joy of working with horses.

Education and Animal Care
We provide instruction in riding and horsemanship, while also teaching members how to care for their horses properly. This includes grooming, feeding, and understanding the responsibilities of horse ownership.

Building Character and Community
Our club promotes values like teamwork, respect, and self-discipline. Through riding and club activities, members learn to support one another, grow in confidence, and become responsible members of the community.
