With a full time coach appointed by the Chairman in consultation with his Deputies and the Director of Polo, the APOLOA are able to provide coaching, advice and support to any member of the British Army who wishes to participate in the sport, regardless of skill level or experience.

In line with the HPA rules, all APOLOA members are to qualify as umpires as per their handicap level and the Secretary is responsible for monitoring members’ attendance at rules clinics. |
