Senior Schools National Arena Championships 3rd March 2019

The National Senior Schools Arena Championships were held on Sunday, 3rd March 2091 at Rugby Polo Club.  A huge thank you to Rugby Polo Club and all the SUPA volunteers for their hard work, without them it would be impossible to run such an event.  We had 38 teams playing over 2 arenas and although we started the day with a couple of lorries full of horses breaking down and horses turning up nearly 2 hours late we only over ran by 30 mins!

IMPORTANT - HELMET REGULATIONS 2018

25TH JANUARY 2018 - UPDATE FROM THE HPA REGARDING HELMETS/HATS

As you are aware the HPA have introduced the minimum standard for polo helmets they must be type approved to at least one of the standards PAS015:2011 with CE mark, SNELL E2001, VG1 01.040 2014-12, or UTAC/CRITT 04/2015.

PAS015:1998 is the previous version of PAS015:2011.

Due to extended lead times retailers often carried high stocks of helmets and therefore there are still helmets available that are labelled PAS015:1998.

The HPA will allow the use of helmets that are labelled PAS015:1998

PLEASE NOTE THAT FROM 1ST JANUARY 2018 SUPA WILL BE ENFORCING THE HPA RULING ON HELMETS www.hpa-polo.co.uk/2018-helmet-regulations/  YOUR INSURANCE WILL BE INVALID AND YOU WILL BE UNABLE TO PLAY IN ANY SUPA TOURNAMENTS IF YOUR HAT DOES NOT MEET THE CRITERIA

BELOW ARE THE REQUIRED HAT STANDARDS
