The USPA is once again partnering with The Jockey Club to provide Best Playing Thoroughbred Awards for USPA Tournaments. Players will be required to register their horse for a Thoroughbred Incentive Program (T.I.P.) number in order to be eligible. Clubs will apply, first come first serve. The winner information will be included in Bluebook tournament results and awards will be mailed to the club.
Eligibility: For purposes of eligibility for all T.I.P. awards, a "Thoroughbred" is defined as any horse that has been registered with The Jockey Club or a foreign Thoroughbred stud book recognized by The Jockey Club. An unregistered horse is not eligible for T.I.P. You must know your horse's registered name to be eligible for T.I.P. (if registered but unnamed, must know YOB and dam's name). For identification assistance and to check registration status, please log in at www.registry.jockeyclub.com.
In order to be eligible for a T.I.P. award, owners and riders must obtain a T.I.P. Number. Please click here to apply for a T.I.P. Number. The T.I.P. number card should be provided to participating polo clubs as proof of eligibility.
To request this award, please email clubs@uspolo.org.
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.
