Australia Wins International Schools Polo Tournament

4 Oct 2025

Australia claimed victory in the 2025 International Schools Polo Match at Windsor Polo Club, defeating New Zealand 5 goals to 2.

The Australian team — Archer Buchert, Piper Trickett, Jasper Webster, and Toby Dowling (Captain) — was superbly coached to victory by Anto White, whose enormous contribution to Junior Australian Polo deserves special recognition. Anto’s efforts come straight off the back of three busy days running the Junior Polo School in Scone.

The New Zealand team of Niamh Ainsley, Luca Parrot, Matt Geddes, and Joe Wade fought hard and displayed great teamwork and determination but couldn’t quite get ahead on the day. It was thrilling to see such talented young players in action on Windsor’s prestigious Number One field.

The Australian Polo Federation extends its sincere thanks to the NSW Polo Association for hosting the event and to the generous horse lenders whose support made the match possible.

The APF Champion Pony Prize was awarded to Anabelle, a 14-year-old mare owned by Paul Trickett and played by Piper Trickett.
