Prestige & Village Youth - Dubai Cup
AN OPPORTUNITY LIKE NO OTHER…
International real estate agents, Prestige & Village Group (PV), are offering an incredible
opportunity for four under 15 players to train and play at Desert Palm Polo Club in
Dubai next year for one week’s coaching and polo experience. This will culminate with a test
match for the PV Youth Dubai Cup, featuring the four players against Desert Palm Junior
Team. The trip of a lifetime will be heavily subsidised by PV who are extremely excited to
present this experience to the lucky selected youngsters. Working together with
Hertfordshire Polo Academy (HPA) and The Pony Club (PC), PV will select youth polo players
this summer, culminating with an announcement of those selected at the 2023 Pony Club
Polo Championships (11-13 August).
Any polo player under 15 on 1st January 2023, that is a registered Pony Club Centre or
Branch member may register to apply for the incentive. The criteria for selection will be based not only on
skill, playing attributes and passion for the game, but also for sportsmanship, knowledge of
all aspects of the game, particularly what is required off the pitch, and a great attitude to
helping others.
Hertfordshire Polo Academy, which is also a PC Centre, will offer a base for players to learn
and play, as well as a season of polo tournaments from which two players will be selected.
All competitions at Silver Leys Polo Club (where Hertfordshire Polo Academy is based) will
be open to young players from across the country in order to give visiting players the
opportunity to be seen and considered. The remaining two players will be selected from The
Pony Club by their Polo Committee who will review players throughout the PC Polo
competitions this summer. All players selected will need to have also completed, or be
working towards, their PC YELA Bronze award volunteering at a charity or
Pony Club Centre/Club Branch in order to showcase their willingness to give back and help
others.
