Are you interested in hosting the 2020 National Arena Amateur Cup at your facility? Due to COVID-19 complications, the 2020 National Arena Amateur Cup (NAAC) will no longer be held at Orange County Polo Club in Silverado, California, this upcoming November. Applications are now being accepted for a host club through the deadline of Friday, August 7. Club delegates may apply for consideration through the Tournament Database by logging into the member portal and selecting "Tournaments".
A brand-new initiative launched in 2019, the new format of the National Arena Amateur Cup (NAAC) is aimed to inject excitement into the sport for present and future members. The new format creates an opportunity to showcase the accessibility of amateur polo and to incentivize amateur players to participate longer and more frequently in USPA tournaments, at their home clubs, home Circuits and nationally.
If you have any questions please contact Tournament Coordinator, Kaila Dowd at kdowd@uspolo.org.
Effective Date: Saturday, May 16, 2020
The suspension of USPA Tournaments and Events will be lifted for USPA Member Clubs in locales where hosting polo matches and tournaments is permitted under applicable state and local laws, executive orders and similar decrees. The USPA Member Clubs in these locales are encouraged to follow all such requirements of their state and local authorities with respect to polo operations. In addition, we also encourage all USPA Member Clubs to take the precautions recommended by the CDC. We are preparing a detailed list of best practices for USPA Member Clubs as they return to hosting USPA Tournaments and Events and plan to circulate these guidelines within the next week. We will continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation closely and will notify you if we determine a different course of action is necessary.
