The Port Harcourt International Polo tournament will begin next month. This event, themed United by The Game, is the largest polo festival in the Niger Delta region. It will be held at the GRA Polo Ground in the city. The weeklong competition honors the late president Roland Cookey-Gam, marking twenty years since his passing.
Club president Prince Henry Agbodjan stated the festival deepens unity and benefits the local economy. It will feature teams from several countries, including Iran and Argentina. Domestic players from Lagos, Kano, and other cities will also participate.
Major trophies include the Governor's Cup and the Rowland Cookey-Gam Memorial Prize. The schedule includes high-goal and low-goal matches daily. A micro market and social events are planned for attendees throughout the week. Organizers aim to build on youth outreach programs from previous years.
