We have crunched all the numbers and are delighted to reveal the winners in our first ever Pony Club Polocrosse Leagues!
2022 was our first year of doing the leagues and we have certainly learnt a lot doing them – not least just how many polocrosse rallies members are doing each year! It’s brilliant to see just how active you and your ponies have all been and also just how many newcomers to the sport we have had in 2022! We look forwards to seeing more of all of you in 2023, both at rallies and at our competitions!
The full results of all the leagues are available through this page:

We are going to aim to present all the prizes for the leagues at the Arena Challenge tournament on the 22nd and 23rd of April, when we hope most of the members who won will be there but if anyone isn’t there we will get your prizes sent to you so don’t worry!
