On Friday 10 April, Guards Polo Club, home of some of the UK’s most illustrious polo tournaments including The Cartier Queen’s Cup, made the following announcement regarding the 2020 season, “The good news is that your Board and Polo Office, in conjunction with the HPA, believes that we will be playing polo in 2020, albeit a little later than originally planned. The Board, which met online together on Wednesday 8 April, is looking at a provisional start date for matches from mid-May – probably behind closed doors – and is looking at all possible options to rejig the season to ensure as much polo as possible. Of course we continue to be guided by the advice from the Government and hope to have more constructive information on future plans after the results of the current lockdown.”

After much deliberation, the Club have decided to postpone the Masquerade Ball in aid of the Even Keel Foundation to Saturday 15 May 2021. Due to Coronavirus restrictions, the Club had initially planned to postpone the event until Saturday 12 September, but with the current uncertainty they felt it was best to postpone the event until 2021. There is a waiting list for those interested in the 2021 event, so get in touch with the Club via email or by calling 01666 881249.
