Exclusive to Members of the AAS

Once again, our friends at the Canning Club have kindly invited us to enjoy a wonderful day of polo and lunch at Ham Polo Club, Richmond, for the Argentine Club Cup Final on Sunday 19 July.

The format will be as usual: a buffet luncheon served on the club terrace, with the price including day membership to the club.

There will also be the alternative option of bringing a picnic to enjoy by the side of the pitch.

Please note that there are only 20 luncheon places available for members of the AAS.

Pricing will be confirmed shortly.

If you would like to attend, please register your interest as soon as possible. Places will be allocated on a first come, first served basis

We are delighted to share that our Gran Asado fundraising raffle raised over £4,000, which will go towards the work of the Society and the charities we support. A huge thank you to everyone who generously donated prizes and helped make the raffle such a success.
