The trophy for the Polo Season 2017-18 was awarded to Laura Liehu. Laura originates from Finland and had started playing polo while attending university in the UK. When she moved to Malta, Laura decided to continue with her passion for polo and is now a regular player at the Malta Arena Polo Club. She has been a remarkable new starter and has improved her game ever since she joined our club. It has been a pleasure to follow her journey as a polo player, additionally she has joined many chukkas and tournaments as an umpire. We are excited to start into the new season of 2018-2019.
