Mount Abu "Maharao Sirohi Polo Cup"


















Mayo College Polo Team Trounced by Umed Bhavan Palace Polo Team.
Many years ago in Scotland, a new game was invented. They ruled it 'Gentlemen Only...Ladies Forbidden'...and thus the word GOLF entered into the English language.

Today April 17, 2008, the Chief Minister of Rajasthan Vasundhara Raje Scindia graced the Final of the "Maharao Sirohi Polo Cup” at the Trevor Oval. After the introduction to the teams she flagged off the game by tossing the ball amid the anxious players, by the time she walked back to the pavilion the game was well underway. The crowd cheered in unison as soon as they scored the first goal. The spectators were really supportive, they showed a keen interest in the game and applauded the dexterous horse riders. The game went smoothly and the young horsemen did not disappoint the audience.
The coveted trophy was lifted by the Umed Bhavan Palace polo team; they trounced their rival team, the Mayo College Team by six goals to three. Three Cheers to the Ajmer Boys Mayo team for their fine display and sportsmanship. I wish them luck in their next challenge polo-cup match.
