WON THE CHAMPIONNAT DE FRANCE, THE LAST TOURNAMENT OF THE SEASON

The Polo de París season came to an end on Sunday after the final of the Championnat de France (6/8 goals) which took place at Bagatelle. The tournament was divided in two groups: París and Chantilly. The final was played between the winners of each pool: Sainte Mesme (París) and French Kiss (Chantilly).

French Kiss started very strongly, scoring the three first goals of the match. But Sainte Mesme wasn´t giving up and net two times at the end of the second chukker to close the gap.

But in the third chukker Brieuc Rigaux increased the difference on the scoreboard and left Sainte Mesme in a complicated situation.
