Wed 6th May 2026Polo Times May Issue Out Now Gauntlet glory, high goal insights & season essentials
The sun is shining, the English season is underway and the May issue of Polo Times went to print last week, full of features, knowledge bombs and match reports to get you so ready and excited for the season here – summer is just around the corner!
This issue is packed with all the latest action from across the pond, featuring not one but two Gauntlet of Polo reports – the USPA Gold Cup Final and the U.S. Open Polo Championship Final – alongside coverage of The Outback Cup and Argentina’s Copa República.
As the polo circuit shifts to the UK for the coming months, this issue also brings you insights from Juan Gris Zavaleta on what it takes to get high goalers ready for the season ahead. Plus, don’t miss the Polo Times High Goal Guide – your essential who’s who of the players and line-ups set to compete in the 22 goal, which begins in just a matter of days. There are also not one but three Sidelines features from start-of-season soirées across the country.
Taunton Vale Polo Club takes centre stage as this month’s Club Spotlight – one of the oldest clubs in the UK and powered by its dedicated volunteers – while in Passions, we discover what makes Rosie Ross tick.
The Knowledge pages include Polodoc’s perspective on team fitness for tournaments and Paul ‘Stalkie’ Stalker’s assessment of winning against the odds. We also welcome back contributors Matt Kenna and India Parker-Smith, who share their expertise on jaw and poll stiffness, and how to get your body match-fit for the season, respectively. All in all, our industry experts have you covered on how to prepare yourself physically and mentally for the summer.
It's a chunky edition and we hope you enjoy reading it as much as we enjoyed putting it together.
