The Polo for Heroes fundraising event is taking place this summer at Fifield Polo Club, Windsor and you could be there, enjoying the wonderful atmosphere, fabulous food and of course all the thrills of top-class polo.
The aim is to raise money to help our Heroes through charities and worthy causes that support members of Britain’s Armed Forces who have been wounded serving their country.
Polo is a supreme test of horse and rider and requires nerve and skill.
Spectators will be treated to thrilling edge-of-the-seat action as our Heroes and Civilian Teams battle it out on the pitch, a real clash of the Titans! There is always that Pretty Woman moment at halftime to go divot treading!
Doors open at 1.30pm, Polo matches form around 2pm until 6pm.
Picnic admission: Everyone is welcome to spectate in the dedicated picnic areas. Bring your own picnic and chairs. (picnic guests to vacate after the polo at around 6.00pm). Picnic guests will also have access to the pay bar.
Tickets: Minimum donation of £10 per car payable at the gate (including all-day parking). Dogs are permitted but strictly on a lead at all times.
