Polocrosse – an extreme sport best described as lacrosse on horseback - is to be featured on Sky TV later this month.

The International Polocrosse Test match series between the UK and South Africa will be broadcast in four parts on Sky Sports 2 Digital, Sky Sports 3 Digital and Sky Sports Xtra between October 27-30.

The coverage will also be available from November 5 on Sky 171 and on the free-to-view Country Channel at www.countrychannel.tv

The international ladies’ and men’s matches were played out at Ashfields Carriage and Polocrosse Club, Essex, in July. Spectators at the two-day event were treated to a feast of great horsemanship and field skills, as well as a country fair atmosphere to be enjoyed by all.
