The Arena Club · 2026/27
Polo all winter
The 2026/27 season runs from 27 October to 28 February: club chukkas every week, twelve arena tournaments, a full junior programme and a clubhouse for après polo.
It has been a long-standing dream of mine to offer the polo community a top-of-the-line arena right in the heart of Oxfordshire.
