Polocrosse is a truly unique Australian sport that is a spectacle of thundering hooves, clashing racquets and elite athleticism.

This year marks fifty years of the even and the Golden Jubilee is expected to be the biggest and best championship in the sport’s history.

Players and their horses will make the pilgrimage from every corner of Australia. Travel must be done by and it will take some people many weeks to arrive in the Swan Valley.

It is estimated that over 400 of the best polocrosse players will travel from all states of Australia, bringing along roughly 600 of their equine teammates to participate in the most significant event on the sport’s calendar.

Players at the championship level display horsemanship that combines the athleticism of polo and the coordination of lacrosse into an action-packed game of skill, teamwork, and endurance.

The 2018 Nationals are proudly supported by the State Government through Tourism Western Australia. It will be one of the biggest equine events the local community has ever seen. It will also be a must-see attraction for tourists visiting the state during the week, the perfect spectator sport for all ages.
