to Jul 9

NATIONAL YOUTH TOURNAMENT SERIES (NYTS)

  • Barrington Hills Polo Club (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

The NYTS program was established to provide youth players the opportunity to compete with and against their peers in USPA outdoor tournaments. At each qualifier, All-Stars are selected by an appointed committee based on their horsemanship, sportsmanship, playing ability at their current handicap and ability to play as a member of a team. All-Stars are then eligible to be selected to advance to the National Championship. Clubs are encouraged to run NYTS qualifiers in conjunction with unrated youth polo chukkers for beginner and intermediate players.
The NYTS Qualifier itself has been designed for advanced youth players, those capable of holding a minimum of a -1 handicap.
