It is with great regret that we notify you of the unfortunate and disappointing news, that the 2025 II FIP Women’s World Championship has been cancelled.  Official notification has been received from the Federation of International Polo (FIP), citing ongoing political and institutional challenges in the host country as the reason for this decision.

We understand that this announcement will be met with deep disappointment by all parties involved. The APF and NSWPA extends its heartfelt gratitude to the players, coaches, managers, selection committee, and support personnel for their unwavering dedication and remarkable efforts throughout this journey.

The level of polo exhibited during the selection matches was truly exceptional, setting a new standard for women’s polo in Australia. We commend everyone involved for their outstanding contributions.

While we acknowledge the current circumstances, we remain optimistic about future opportunities on an international scale. The Federation of International Polo (FIP) is actively exploring options to potentially host a Women’s World Championship in 2026.

Should you have any inquiries or concerns, please feel free to contact the APF. We look forward to continued involvement with the Australian Federation as they pursue future national and international competitions for Women’s Polo in Australia and Abroad.
