Group of Riders

 

If you are a group of riders interested in polocrosse then you are probably similar to an interested riding club. The UKPA see riding clubs a natural way of growing the sport of polocrosse as it is a team sport and so an already established group of riders is a perfect place to set up a new club. The same is true for any group of riders.

Polocrosse is a brilliant sport for people to take up as it is something different for both the riders and the horses to do and helps improve the schooling of the horses and the balance and flexibility of the riders. It is also a very socialable sport so you can be assured that you will make many new friends amongst the polocrosse community.

The UKPA can help groups source equipment and arrange coaches to deliver introductory sessions to interested groups. The UKPA wants to work with people throughout the country to the benefit of both the people and the sport itself.

The UKPA has created a dedicated document to explain more about the sport and the benefits in can bring to a riding club - click here to read it.

The UKPA is also presently running a subisidised starter kit offer whereby you can purchase starter kit of polocrosse at a reduced price for your group. Click here to read the details of this offer and find out how you can take it up.
