This Week at Polo

Newport vs. New York



The Newport International Polo Series welcomes the return of New York for another highly anticipated rematch. This historic rivalry runs deeper than most, as New York holds a unique place in Newport Polo’s origins. Founded by New Yorkers summering in Newport, the Newport Polo Club has since flourished into a global stage for elite competition. Each year, New York returns to challenge the very legacy it helped create, making this match not just a contest of skill, but a nod to the roots of the Newport Polo Club itself.
