All About Elephants


Much as we may like to think this is all about the players, Elephant Polo would be a significantly different and rather less interesting sport without the elephants.....


Elephants are wonderful, lovely, loving, beautiful animals - they deserve more attention, love and adoration and respect than all of the players put together (especially the Pukka Chukkas!).

We are massively privileged to be playing alongside the elephants, and their mahouts, from Tiger Tops Jungle Lodge. There is one exception to this: baby Sandra Kali, pictured right with her mum and Melanie, is not old enough to take part yet, but we hope she will be able to watch us training and that gives us old softies an excuse, under her mother's watchful eye, to give her a hug!

The Elephant Polo matches held in Nepal are genteel affairs, to say the least. We won't plaigiarise what has been written elsewhere but please click on these links for more information about how the Tiger Tops elephants are respected, their welfare defended, and their futures assured:
