Congrats to Mondial, Peregrine, The Break Up and Lords of Death; Heroes on the court, gentlemen off the court, you've shown us all you're teams who can represent the best UK polo at the Euros in Italy and hopefully at the Worlds in Montpellier.
Thanks to Zsofia, Paddy, Rich, Cab and everyone else who helped make it happen. Bristol tourneys get better every time.
