Tournament Conditions
Handicap: Games will be played on the handicap.
Courtesy Changes: Given that this is an early-season tournament with higher temperatures expected, in the interest of equine welfare, the umpires will allow 1 courtesy change per chukker during a stoppage of play.
Straight Matches: The 1st-place teams from each game will play each other for the “Championship”, the remaining teams will play for the “Consolation” match. Ties will be broken by a shootout in which all players on a team participate. (Outdoor Rule 14.d)
Buzzer Beater: The “buzzer beater” rule will be in effect for all games (Outdoor Rule 14.b).
Umpire Horses: Each team is required to mount one umpire for 4 chukkers during their game (1 umpire horse minimum, 2 umpire horses recommended). Teams are responsible for tacking up, preparing, and bringing the umpire horses to the umpires prior to their game. Per USPA rules, umpire horses are required to be in a polo bridle including draw reins, and saddles must have an overgirth.
Helmets: Per USPA rules, all players are required to wear a helmet that passes the NOCSAE standard. Anyone on horseback (grooms, etc.) must wear a standard or NOCSAE-certified helmet.
Spare Changes: Spare horse changes must be done on the end lines.
