The 2019 Outdoor and Arena Umpire Tests are now available online. All currently certified umpires and umpires seeking a new umpire certification are required to take the test with a passing grade of 95% Outdoor and/or 94% Arena.
As the USPA Umpires LLC, UMP Program continues to grow, safe and consistent umpiring is an important aspect of our growing sport. The USPA Umpires LLC, UMP Reimbursement Program is equally important to USPA Member Clubs in achieving certified umpires, and reimbursing clubs for acquiring certified umpire services.
In order to take the tests please visit www.uspolo.org, Associations Tab, Programs menu, Umpires and 2019 Umpire Test. Once you submit the preliminary information you will be prompted to choose which test you would like to take. The list of Certified Umpires is up to date on the website. An umpire not listed on the website is not considered certified at this time. Umpires not meeting certification requirements in 2019 will not be considered a certified umpire for 2020.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Maggie Mitchell.
Effective Date: Saturday, May 16, 2020
The suspension of USPA Tournaments and Events will be lifted for USPA Member Clubs in locales where hosting polo matches and tournaments is permitted under applicable state and local laws, executive orders and similar decrees. The USPA Member Clubs in these locales are encouraged to follow all such requirements of their state and local authorities with respect to polo operations. In addition, we also encourage all USPA Member Clubs to take the precautions recommended by the CDC.

We will continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation closely and will notify you if we determine a different course of action is necessary.
