Fri 4th Apr 2025Polo Times April Issue Out Now US season in full swing and English season just around the corner
The US season is at its apex, with the 22 goal Gauntlet of Polo and 26 World Polo League well underway, plus plenty of action in Argentina for their autumn season. Meanwhile in the UK, spring has officially begun with the hottest day of the year so far last week on the spring equinox and horses across the country busy getting fit for the upcoming season which begins in April. 2025 is an important year for Guards Polo Club who celebrate their 70th anniversary this year and are fittingly this month’s Club Spotlight.
This issue of Polo Times is packed full of Reports from across the globe with action from The Gauntlet of Polo, The Founders Cup, The Savile Cup and closer to home The Arena Gold & Silver Cups. Plus, plenty of food for thought in the Knowledge pages with Raise Polo’s Winning Mindset, Lorna Edgar’s tips on Prepping to Travel & Play, Polodoc’s insights into brain mapping as well as Kat Seeman’s article on Sheath Abnormalities – not one to read over breakfast!
This month’s Feature on TWW Yachts is however certainly an article to read on the last few cold, dark winter nights, with their array of stunning super yachts for charter – yes please!
Sadly, this issue bids farewell to Bill Drummond Moray, with his nephew Andrew looking back on his polo-filled life around the globe.
