On April 9th -10th of 2022, eleven of our Island Polo Club members went to visit our great friends at the Rugby Polo Club in Willoughby, UK.

We had an exiting weekend with a polo clinic followed by instructional chukkas on Saturday. On Sunday we held the Island Polo Club & Rugby Polo Club Challenge, consisting of 8 eventful chukkas.

As always it was a pleasure to play with the guys from Rugby Polo and learn from their expertise.

Trips abroad are a great part of our club and we can´t wait for many more to come this summer.

Find some fun photos of our trip below and stay tuned for more trips to follow.

To join in with the chukkas, call Steve +356 79537550.

We welcome nonmembers and visitors from abroad.  If you are new to polo, why not try some lesson and experience this amazing sport?

The club’s focus is to make polo accessible to everyone and it is a great place to learn and to play all year round. Our members range from the experienced player to complete beginners.
