MANILA, Philippines – Philippine polo could play a vital role in the country’s all-out bid to win the overall Southeast Asian (SEA) Games championship since the first gold is likely to come in one of the polo events.

The 0 Goals Mix event will be held from November 10 to 17 and the final is slated to happen on November 29 – a day before the event officially opens.

“Hopefully we can produce the first gold and set things in motion for Team Philippines,” said United Polo Players Association (UPPA) Chairman Emeritus Rep. Mikee Romero.

The two other events are the 5-8 Goals that will take place on November 20 to 26, while the 2-4 Goals event will happen on December 2 to 9. Both final matches are scheduled on December 9.
