The inaugural OUPC Ball was held at Blenheim Palace with players and guests from universities around the country in attendance, including Varsity rivals Cambridge University. Guests were greeted at the Palace by OUPC coach David Ashby’s polo ponies, from the The Oxford Polo School, for a photoshoot. A champagne reception in the courtyard followed, before guests entered the Blenheim Orangery for a four course dinner, raffle and speeches from HPA Chairman, Brigadier John Wright, and David Walton Masters. The evening continued with a live band before revellers made their way back to Oxford for an after party.
