When too much sport is barely enough

May 16, 2024

As well as the regular weekend sport, there was a lot of sporting activity at Oberon's schools this week.
You can read about that here.

Oberon Pony Club

The weather wasn't what was wanted for Oberon Pony Club's rally, but a suitable indoor arena was found. As the Club's Danielle Doff said: "Huge Thank You to Emily Willowtree Stables for hosting our rally today! Due to the wet slippery conditions we all thoroughly enjoyed the fabulous indoor arena with great footing for all our Mother’s Day fun and games!"
