Earlier in the year, in July, a Singapore polo team played at the Chantilly Club (located in a beautiful part of the French countryside north of Paris) while a visit to the SPC by a Chantilly team was organised for November 2016. By all accounts, good fun was had by all that weekend, despite the inclement weather – not unusual for Singapore at that time of the year – which unfortunately meant that Saturday’s match was rained out and an arena polo match hastily arranged as an alternative. It has to be admitted though, that on both occasions – on their home ground as well as here – the final scores of the respective matches had France getting the better of Singapore. Vive le France!” Better luck next time Singapore. ◼
