As the year comes to a close, we want to take a moment to say thank you to every member of the California Polo Club community. Your enthusiasm, sportsmanship, and commitment are what make this club so special, and we are deeply grateful to share the sport with such an incredible group of people.

Thank you as well to everyone who was able to join us on Saturday for our holiday party. It was wonderful to celebrate the season together and reflect on another memorable year at the club.

2025 was truly an outstanding year for CPC. From Thursday night Polo Under the Lights, to both new and seasoned members competing in PCAL, to the club proudly hosting the 2025 U.S. Open Arena Polo Championships, the level of polo, participation, and camaraderie was exceptional. We are incredibly proud of what this community continues to build together, both in and out of the arena.

Wishing you and your families a joyful holiday season and a happy, healthy New Year. We can’t wait to see what’s ahead in the coming season, and to share many more great chukkers with you all. 🏇✨

We’ll be back to our regular schedule on January 2nd!

If a polo vacation has been on your bucket list, Puesto Viejo Estancia is the place to do it. Just outside Buenos Aires, this stunning estancia offers the full Argentine polo experience—morning lessons, afternoon chukkers, exceptional horses, incredible food, relaxed afternoons by the pool, and unforgettable Pampas sunsets. Whether you’re a seasoned player or newer to the sport, it’s the perfect blend of polo, adventure, and downtime.

We’re currently gathering interest for a California Polo Club group trip to Puesto Viejo in the spring. More details will be shared once flights, dates, and pricing are finalized. If you (or someone you know) are a travel agent and can help with coordinating group flights, please reach out to Katty.

If you think you might want to join, fill out the quick interest form so we can keep you in the loop as plans come together!

The new year is shaping up to be an exciting one at CPC, and we’re thrilled to share a preview of what’s ahead from January through March.

We’ll be heading back to the desert for grass polo outings, with plans to host one grass trip per month. These trips are a great chance to play on grass, enjoy a change of scenery, and spend quality time with the CPC community. Specific dates and details will be shared soon.

Back in the arena, we’re also excited to introduce the CPC Arena Tournament, a new structured way to play that emphasizes team building, consistency, and development over time. The league will be organized by level and include:

Players will compete with the same team throughout the league, creating stronger teamwork and a more cohesive playing experience. More information including dates, format, and sign-ups will be coming your way shortly.

We can’t wait to kick off the new season together and share what’s ahead!

We’ll be sharing a full recap of the U.S. Open Arena Polo Championship presented by U.S. Polo Assn. very soon—but we couldn’t wait to highlight what an incredible finale it was. Stahl Polo triumphed over Bush League to claim the $50,000 first-place prize, closing out an unforgettable championship match.

With nearly 900 spectators filling the stands, the atmosphere was electric and the level of arena polo on display was outstanding. Stay tuned for a complete recap featuring highlights, photos, and behind-the-scenes moments from one of the most exciting events of the season.

As the year comes to a close, this is a friendly reminder that it’s time to renew your USPA membership. USPA memberships operate on a calendar-year basis, so renewing before January ensures there’s no lapse in coverage.

Maintaining an active USPA membership is important for several reasons. It provides insurance coverage for each player, and it also directly supports California Polo Club: the USPA allocates funding to clubs based on active member numbers, so your renewal helps strengthen and sustain our program.

Thank you for taking a moment to renew and for your continued support of CPC as we head into the new year!

When you join, please remember to list California Polo Club as your host club. This directly strengthens CPC by giving us voting power within the USPA and additional funding support — every member truly makes a difference. 🗳 Join HERE.

To help us better coordinate club events and keep everyone in the loop, we ask that all members please download the Partiful app, available in both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. Partiful is where we’ll be posting potlucks, sign-ups, and official club events moving forward.

We’ll continue to share key information in our newsletters, but Partiful will always be the most up-to-date source for official CPC event details. Using the app helps us accurately plan for things like food and space—and lets us communicate important updates in a clear, one-to-many way.

We truly appreciate everyone’s help in adopting Partiful. It makes event planning smoother, reduces administrative overhead for club staff, and ultimately helps us put on better, more organized events for the whole community.

Thank you for helping us make CPC events run seamlessly!
