8/23 Newport vs. New York

Time: August 23, 2025 5:00 PM

The Newport International Polo Series welcomes the return of New York for another highly anticipated rematch. This historic rivalry runs deeper than most, as New York holds a unique place in Newport Polo’s origins. Founded by New Yorkers summering in Newport, the Newport Polo Club has since flourished into a global stage for elite competition. Each year, New York returns to challenge the very legacy it helped create, making this match not just a contest of skill, but a nod to the roots of the Newport Polo Club itself.

But don’t let the shared history fool you—this is no sentimental reunion. New York has long been the most successful contender in Newport’s City Series, and their competitive edge remains sharp. Last year, Newport managed to reverse New York’s winning streak, and now the “Gothamites” are back with a score to settle. With both teams bringing their finest players to the field, spectators can expect a thrilling clash where the founders will once again face off against their heirs in a battle of strategy, speed, and determination. Join us for this exciting chapter in the ongoing saga of Newport vs. New York, where old ties are honored, but new battles are won.
