In 1980 the Pony Club International Alliance (PCIA) was formed to bring independent Pony Club organisations together and is now an association of the following Pony Clubs:
In 2018, The Pony Club hosted representatives from all the PCIA countries and a new determination to develop a global identity for the Pony Club emerged.
Many Pony Club Activities hold International Exchanges with countries within the PCIA, including Tetrathlon, Mounted Games, Quiz and Hunting. There are also virtual Show Jumping and Dressage Competitions. All Pony Club Tests from E-A are also compatible across the PCIA making access for members internationally, equal and accessible for all.
The Youth Advisory Council was formed in 2021. The council reports to the PCIA Board, of which the following countries are members – Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa, UK, and USA. This council functions to increase communication, advice, and projects to connect, engage, and inspire Pony Club members around the world. In addition, the YAC provides members' insight into matters under consideration by PCIA and can bring forth ideas and proposals to PCIA for further attention. Key Responsibilities include but are not limited to: • Encourage the establishment of national youth boards if they are not already in place. • Communicate, support, educate, and advocate for your local youth board/committee/council and for all youth members within Pony Club in your country. • Act on matters, including projects presented by the PCIA Board. • Provide input, advice, ideas, and solutions to the PCIA Board. • Consider matters that are of concern to the youth of Pony Club and bring these matters to PCIA to discuss and decide on a course of action. There are two (2) representatives per country​​​​​​​
