2018 National Polocrosse Championships to be held in the Swan Valley

Set to be held throughout the week of 1st to 7th October, Polocrosse WA will be hosting the 2018 Australian National Polocrosse Championships at the home of Perth Polocrosse Club - the State Equestrian Centre.

With 2018 marking 50 years of the event, the Western Australian Equestrian Centre will be the biggest equine event the local community has ever seen, with teams from across the country meeting to compete in its Golden Jubilee tournament.

It is estimated that over 400 of the best polocrosse players will travel from all states of Australia, bringing along roughly 600 of their equine teammates to participate in the most significant event on the sport’s calendar.

Players and their horses will be travelling to the Championships from every corner of the nation, with some taking weeks to arrive in the Swan Valley.

Polocrosse is a truly unique Australian sport that is a spectacle of thundering hooves, clashing racquets and elite athleticism and players at the Championship level display horsemanship that combines the athleticism of polo and the coordination of lacrosse into an action-packed game of skill, teamwork, and endurance.

The 2018 National Polocrosse Championships are supported by the Western Australian Government through Tourism Western Australia.
