International Mounted Games Exchange 🌏  

The next International Mounted Games Exchange will be held in the United States in July 2026.  

Riders will once again have the opportunity to demonstrate teamwork, horsemanship and global friendship at the highest level. 

We are very excited to announce Jack Hamilton as the Victorian Selection for the Pony Club Australia 2026 Mounted Games Team! 

Jack’s Mum, Niree, says,

“When I think of his journey...Jack was on a pony as soon as he could sit up. He used to tag along with the older pony club riders and join in with their games practice from the age of three. All the older riders were so encouraging of him which made him more determined to do it by himself and do it well. 

He rode in his first Kay Irving ‘assisted’ team when he was four years old then stepped up into the big team when he was six. Jack has been very successful with his games, he was part of the winning Kay Irving State Games team in 2022, 2023 & 2024 with Woodlands Pony Club, he was also part of the back to back National winning Prince Philip Mounted Games teams in 2024 & 2025 with Team Vic - PCV. Jack has had some great horses and mentors over the years and has been lucky to have some top level coaches too. 

He is looking forward to IMGE to be able to be in a team with the riders he’s always riding against! He is keen to meet like minded riders from other countries and build the connections that can only be built through opportunities like this in pony club. 

Jack is very grateful for this opportunity – it’s a dream come true.” 

We wish Jack the best of luck and are looking forward to hearing about his epic adventure ahead!
