Belltrees boys in Australian "Colts" Polo team




Both Alec and Jasper White were selected to play for the Australian Colts Polo team which toured New Zealand during the first 2 weeks of February 2011. The team played in Christchurch, Hawkes Bay and Kihikihi (Waikato region near Cambridge).






The boys won all three matches and combined well to give the Kiwis a hiding (8 - 5) in the final Test match in front of 3,000 spectators. Their game was the curtain raiser to the International match between a "World" side and New Zealand's best.






It was a great experience for the two White boys who now go on to play the forthcoming Ellerston 8, 14 and 16 goal tournamnets and have a chance of being selected in the World Cup squad to tour Malaysia later in the year.
