Wed 15th Sep 2021AAP Reaches 99th Year Milestone
On Tuesday 14 September, the Argentine Polo Association (AAP) celebrated its first 99 years. The AAP was founded in 1922 after the merging of the River Plate Polo Association (1892) and the National Polo Federation (1921) on the opening day of the Argentine Open Championships that year, which were held at the Hurlingham Club. In 1927, in conjunction with the leaders of the War Horse Commission, they ordered the construction of the famous fields 1 and 2 of Palermo, inaugurated in 1928, which became theatres of world conquests and historical records that made it win the nickname of the World Polo Cathedral.
