The players will have the opportunity to train together up to twice a week with coaches who are HPA qualified, who also play, train and coach Polo professionally. Throughout the arena season we are based at Emsworth Polo Grounds hiring ponies from La Mariposa and throughout the summer season we will be based at Pangbourne Polo Club.
We hold regular fixtures for both the arena season and the grass season with Harrow and Eton as well as playing the local SUPA tournaments. We hold The Copenhagen Cup during the Summer Term alongside the team at Guards Polo Club. We invite top schools to participate in this two-day fixture which is finalised with a beautiful awards ceremony at the Guards Polo Clubhouse.
Andrew Hine will be leading the training and development of Polo from 2024. Andrew has played at the highest level of polo, captaining England from 1999 to 2003, as well as being England Team Manager for 5 years, overseeing many team victories including winning the Westchester Cup in Palm Beach in 2009 and four out of 5 Coronation Cup victories.
Andrew has coached and managed successful High Goal teams including Zacara, Park Place , and Thai Polo, winning 12 Prince of Wales, Queens and Gold Cups. He has also helped his children, including his two sons who attended Wellington to develop as top level polo players.
We hope that by providing elite coaching, management, facilities and advice, all Wellington Polo players will be able to reach their maximum potential, whilst enjoying this incredible sport which will be part of their lives forever.
