USA vs Australia
USA to Take on Undefeated Australia in Newport Polo’s Marquee Match
G’day, mates! , the stage is set for one of the most anticipated clashes of the season as Team USA faces undefeated Team Australia in the Newport International Polo Series presented by Turkish Airlines this Saturday, September 13 at 4PM.
From the wild Outback to the historic grounds of Newport, the Aussies only make the trans-Pacific journey to Newport once every decade, and this weekend marks their 4th dust-up with the Yanks. Australia is one of the world’s top polo powerhouses. Since their Series debut in 1994, the Australians have never lost on Newport’s grass, bringing their signature grit, cheek, and outback swagger back for another historic contest.
After a decisive 14-10 win in 2016, the Aussies return with the thunder from down under to shake things up on American soil. But Team USA is prepared to defend their legacy, channeling the discipline and determination that have made them formidable opponents in this 32-year rivalry!
The duel offers an atmosphere as vibrant as the competitors themselves, with Outback-inspired festivities, local favorites, and bold new flavors. Fire up the barbie at a totally tubular tailgate and check out Newport Kites‘ sky surfing demo to complement the international clash. Will Australia’s untamed spirit triumph again, or will Newport prove the staying power of discipline and tradition?

Match Theme
Billabong Barbie
Newport Polo goes down under with Billabong Barbie, where Outback spirit meets sideline style, surf meets turf! Think rugged yet chic Australian-inspired look, cowboy boots, suede hats, breezy sundresses, earthy tones and reptile prints, paired with rustic décor from the beach or bush. Bleached driftwood or skull & horns, neutral tones with pops of coral or aquamarine. Refreshing cocktails and your best grill skills (dare we suggest exotic meats?) will set the mood as the sidelines transform into a showcase of sun bronzed Aussie flair, with the most standout looks crowned in the Stella Artois Best in Show.
