Dear Players & Spectators,
If you want action, entertainment and horseflesh then come to Sydney this Easter.
There is the Inglis, Easter Yearling sales, then there is the Group One Derby and Doncaster Race days, The Royal Easter Show and to top it all off there is the two straight weeks of polo.
After the Ellerston 18 goal Tournament finishes up on the 1st of April the convoy of trucks and players converge on Sydney for the annual Easter Polo hosted by NSWPA and Windsor Polo Club. There is polo for everyone at Windsor during the day and Polo at the RAS during the night.
This year sees the return of the Morton Cup a 14 goal tournament to be run on the days of the 4th, 6th and 9th of April. These dates may seem odd but this was designed to provide some great 14 goal medium goal polo for patrons and players as well as enjoying the RAS polo at the same time. Some of these players may also be selected to play for Australia in either the RAS Test match against NZ or in the Australian team to Play Chile in the Annual Easter Test to be run at Windsor on the 15th of April
So get to Windsor this Easter for some great polo, some great prizes, and a hell of a good time.
Windsor Polo Club will be taking nominations now for the 14 goal Morton Cup.
All Nominations should be made by calling Adam Buchert on 0408078313 for a nomination form. Or emailing him on adambuchertpolo@optusnet.com.au
Nominations close on 25th of March
