Eldorado Polo Club (Eldorado), located in Indio, California, is pleased to announce its 2021 season tournament schedule. The 2021 season will see a similar schedule as last year with levels ranging from 2- to 12-goals along with Pro Pool and the Women's Chukker League.
Given the abrupt end to last season and the postponed Coachella concerts, Eldorado is looking to open the fields earlier this season for practices and some fun pre-season tournaments through December, while also looking forward to the Pacific Coast Women's Challenge to be held December 18-20.
Contact Polo Manager Graham Bray at (760) 774-2583 or grahamjbray@gmail.com to discuss season plans.

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.
