Outback Cup is underway in Palm Beach

The Outback Cup, due to be played at Patagones Polo Club, in Wellington, Florida, United States,  kicked of on March 19. Previously known as the Outback Invitational, the contest was played at Patagones for the first time in 2022, as a part of the Wellington Polo Tour. The Outback Cup is the fourth qualifying stage of a series of tournaments – Joe Barry Memorial Cup, Ylvisaker Cup and Iglehart Cup, and will culminate in the NPC 16-Goal Championship, on April 14, at the National Polo Center.

Cabe destacar que los ganadores de las anteriores etapas fueron Forbes Plunkett (Joe Barry Memorial Cup), Clearwater (Ylvisaker Cup) y BTA (Iglehart Cup). Cada ganador irá al evento final; el formato de juego de la serie implica que si un equipo gana más de uno de estos certámenes clasificatorios, automáticamente avanza a la definición. It’s worth to notice that the winners of the three previous legs were Forbes Plunkett (Joe Barry Memorial Cup), Clearwater (Ylvisaker Cup) and BTA (Iglehart Cup), with each winning team moving on to the final event. Should a team win more than one qualifier, that team will automatically advance to the NPC 16-Goal Championship final.

The Outback Cup sees ten teams up to 16 goals, split in three leagues, in participation.
