TOWN AND COUNTY CHAMPIONSHIP


SATURDAY 29 AUGUST 2020


TOWN & COUNTY CHAMPIONSHIP


TEAMS CLARITA, QUATERVOIS/LEANDER, TCHOGAN, AFB


T


he Mathias family have been long standing supporters of Guards Polo Club and so their announcement that they were


stepping back from the sport was greeted with dismay. Ironically, this team which has added several pieces of Club silverware to its trophy cupboard over the years, including the Royal Windsor Cup, appears to be leaving as they hit another winning streak. In early July Chris Mathias won the Hildon Archie David Cup for the first time and now weeks later, he was claiming the Town & County Championship. Clarita came out best of the 10 teams


taking part in this popular, eight-goal tournament. They defeated Quatervois/ Leander 5-4 in a competitive game at Coworth Park. Jack Hyde, who like his patron was having a brilliant 2020, was named the Most Valuable Player. Chris himself stepped forward to receive the Images of Polo Best Playing pony prize for his Inocencia. The sub-final saw a win for Heiko


Voelker’s Tchogan. They narrowly defeated Clive Reid’s AFB team, 7-6. Again, this match highlighted the competitive nature of this tournament, with players and ponies at the peak of fitness. ◆
