Over 20 polo teams will vie for honours in the 2022 Jos Winter Polo Tournament which will gallop off on December 25 to January 2, 2023 at the popular General Hassan Polo Ground.
Polo Royals exclusively gathered that the added allure during the tournament this year would be the inaugural Charity event that would gallop off the prestigious tournament on Christmas Day and the return of the popular Miss Polo Pageant.
Three traditional cups categories with Governor’s Cup, NASCO Cup and President Cup and subsidiary prizes would be on offer and participating teams would be locked in weeklong battle royals to decide the winners of the winter polo festival.
Secretary Nigerian Polo Federation (NPF) and Jos Polo Club President, Murtala Laushi, has assured polo enthusiasts and tourists that the club will host the best winter polo fiesta that will surpass previous editions in every respect in years.
