Membership runs from the 1st April to the 31st March and is not transferable.

There is a sliding scale of membership rates from a modest fee for social members, chukka, junior, etc. to full playing membership.

 

For playing and non-playing members, the social season begins with our Pre Season Drinks Party at Nunsmere Hall Hotel followed by a succession of exclusive events in the Club’s marquee to include informal barbeques, themed parties with live music, discos and lavish lunches. All our members are entitled to:

 

- Annual player’s badges, car stickers and programme of events

- Use of the clubhouse or members’ marquee

- Attendance at all polo, with two guests, at the Club

- Attendance at all social events with guests

- Members’ rates for all hospitality

 

Please apply to The Secretary for full details of Membership and Application Form.

 

 

Come and watch some great polo every weekend from 1.00 p.m. – entry is free.  A small charge of £10 per car will be made to non-members and non-ticket holders on certain tournament days.  Bring the family and a picnic and make a day of it.  For non-members, a day membership of £5 per person may be purchased when you arrive.

 

 

Smart casual clothes, with comfortable shoes for ‘treading-in’.

 

 

Safety helmets must be worn by anyone riding on the Club’s property.

 

Stick & Balling/Exercising/Schooling:  There will be designated areas for this, weather permitting, at no charge to members.  Any playing member found taking anyone to stick and ball at the grounds who is not a playing member of the club and covered by HPA insurance will automatically incur a fine and a ban from playing until the fine is paid, as this is a breach of club rules.

 

Lessons to Club Playing Members on the Club’s Premises:  The only people entitled to give lessons to other CPC playing members on the club’s grounds or premises are the Cheshire Polo Club Official Coaches, the club’s professional players and playing members who have paid their full club and HPA subscriptions or any visiting HPA coach who has a pre-arranged invitation from the committee of the CPC.

 

Lessons to Non Club Members:  The only person entitled to give lessons to non club members is an official CPC coach who has the authorisation of the club’s committee and can give lessons to non CPC members on the club’s premises who have paid their HPA Affiliation Fee.  The Club’s Committee will only give authorisation for non HPA qualified coaches after sight of valid third party public liability insurance cover.

 

Grooms Riding their Employer’s Ponies:  Grooms employed and paid by CPC playing members who have paid the club and HPA subscription may exercise their employer’s ponies on the club exercise areas and “stick and ball” areas but may not play in practice chukkas unless they have joined as a chukka member or pay chukka fees as a non member together with their full HPA affiliation fee.

 

Member’s Responsibilities:  Each member of the Club is responsible for ensuring that all their employees, professional players and grooms, are aware of and abide by the Club’s Rules.

 

Insurance:  The club recommends to all playing members that while the HPA insurance only currently covers them for third party liability that each playing member takes out their own personal accident insurance policy.

 

Persons and Vehicles are admitted on condition that neither the Cheshire Polo Club Committee nor any person acting for them, will be responsible or liable for any accident, injury or illness, damage or claim arising directly or indirectly to any persons, horses, dogs, vehicles or property however such damage, injury or loss may be caused.
