The United States Polo Association (USPA) will adapt a new tournament structure for 2020 and applications are now available. All Circuit, Sanctioned and National Tournaments will have the same tournament fee based on goal level.
All USPA Tournament Applications can be submitted electronically, through the new tournament database. Once logged into the Member Portal and viewing one’s profile, Club Delegates can access the database by clicking on the tab titled "Tournaments." You will then be given the option to select “Tournament Application Form” or “Roster/Results Entry.”
Online applications for National Tournaments, Sanctioned Tournaments and Circuit Tournaments are only accessible to clubs that are in good standing with the USPA. Club dues must be paid for the current year and club insurance must be up to date.
Using the drop-down options, select the type of tournament you would like to host and fill in all fields as they apply to your tournament.
Once an application is submitted, it will automatically be sent out for approvals and processing. The Club Delegate will be notified via email when the application is approved or denied. If the application is approved, Delegates will be sent an approval email with a link prompting them to submit team rosters. Umpires LLC will also be notified if the use of professional umpires was requested on the application.

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 are preparing a detailed list of best practices for USPA Member Clubs as they return to hosting USPA Tournaments and Events and plan to circulate these guidelines within the next week. We will continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation closely and will notify you if we determine a different course of action is necessary.
