The Korea Polo Federation will hold the "4th Korea Polo Federation President's Cup, hosted by Hana Bank," on the 13th of next month at Jeju Korea Polo Club.
Hana Bank will participate as the title sponsor of the tournament, and in addition to the main match featuring major domestic players, a game for youth players is also scheduled to be held.
Earlier, to build a domestic youth polo infrastructure, the Korea Polo Federation designated Jeju Korea Polo Club as a youth training center and has supported a budget totaling 1.5 billion won over three years, providing 50 million won annually. In particular, training at the indoor arena, a key hub, is credited with contributing to the development of youth players.
Korea Polo Federation President Cho Jun-hee said, "I hope the support over the past three years has provided young players with a stable training environment and opportunities for growth," adding, "We will continue to expand the base of polo in Korea through sustained support."
Polo is a British aristocratic sport, a form of hockey in which two teams of four players each ride horses and hit a polo ball with mallets. The Korea Polo Federation is known to have held the President's Cup annually since 2023.
