Paul Sweeney Memorial Trophy; Ash Farm Polo Club; Surrey; 11 January 2014
Friends by the Fireside A huge gathering of friends, family and supporters of the Sweeney’s watched the game for the Paul Sweeney Memorial Trophy. Spectators were treated to a real display of fun and fast polo whilst watching from the covered galleries of the clubhouse. Friends of the Club could be found hanging out by the fireside, conveniently located next to the bar reading their copies of Polo Times and The Polo Magazine as they waited for the second half of the game to begin. Even the four galleries weren’t enough to hold the fans as they spilled out of the club house to get a close up view of the action by the arena gate. The afternoon finished off with the teams showering each other with champagne and the hardy supporters headed off to the Brickmakers in Windelsham to continue their celebrations into the night.
