Fri 29th Sep 2017FIP XI World ChampionshipsThe teams have been announced
The teams for the FIP XI World Championships in Sydney, Australia this October have been announced. Players from eight countries across the world will be gathering to compete for the coveted trophy, having reached the upper echelons of the tournament in the qualifying stages across FIP’s five zones earlier this year. Chile will be defending its title against the plethora of strong teams with a smattering of famous polo names, from Novillo Astrada to Singh to Gairdner. The matches will be live streamed by Polo Line throughout the tournament, whilst an array of other equestrian events will be taking place throughout Sydney in honour of the world-class tournament. From jousting to rodeo there will be something for everyone. Polo Times will be in attendance in Sydney, keeping our avid readers up to date with all the FIP and polo action, so be sure to subscribe by clicking here, to stay in the loop. On a side note, polo ponies have also been making lengthy journeys across the Australasian continent to take part in the tournament. Approximately 250 ponies have travelled the length and breadth of the country to show their speed and agility on the world stage, an amazing feat for the Australian polo fraternity.
