As part of the Arena Polo International Day, England will face Ireland in this ultra-competitive match at The All England Polo Club Hickstead, which promises to be a fast-paced, adrenaline-filled showdown between two of the top teams in arena polo.
Ireland will be returning to Hickstead with a score to settle, have lost by 3 goals when they last faced England for this match in 2022. England will head into the match with confidence, being undefeated on home soil throughout 2023 and having enjoyed a stellar international season with victories in the Bryan Morrison, Westchester, Golden Jubilee, Silver Jubilee, and Coronation Cup.
