Returning to the prestigious Ham Polo Club, this year’s Royal Saragarhi Polo Challenge Cup marks the 120th anniversary of the Battle of Saragarhi and promises another action packed day of exhilarating polo and fun for all the family.
The Ham Polo Club is one of the oldest polo clubs in the United Kingdom and the last surviving club in London.
In the opening match featuring the Sikh team, the Sherdills (Lionhearts), veterans will set the scene for yet another high goal finale to bring the day to an explosive finale.
Hosted by the Saragarhi Foundation as part of its programme of commemorative events.
