La Fe Women's Polo Team: 2023 U.S. Open Women's Polo Champions

In this highly-anticipated Season Finale of Outside The Boards Podcast, we're ecstatic to introduce you to three remarkable athletes - Pamela Flanagan, Hope Arellano, and Hazel Jackson, who together form three-fourths of the formidable La Fe Women's Polo Team. What's even more remarkable is that these champions are joining us from across the globe, with representatives in Florida, California, and Argentina.

It's been a little over a month since they last played together and since their incredible victory at the 2023 U.S. Open Women's Polo Championship. But the taste of triumph is still fresh in their minds and hearts.

Their journey to this victory was not without its challenges, including a tough start in the Open with a nail-biting loss to BTA by just one point in the initial match. However, their unwavering dedication, teamwork, and competitive spirit carried them through, effortlessly defeating El Cid Fitness by 8 points and San Saba by 5, ultimately culminating in a resounding 12-6 victory against Dundas in the finals.

When you tally up their collective experience, these three incredible women boast a staggering 15+ Open appearances and have secured more than 8 Open Championships. Their list of achievements is truly awe-inspiring.

Join us as we delve into the story of how this remarkable team came together, the meticulous planning and coordination that went into building their successful team and string, and yes, they didn't hold back in sharing some entertaining and perhaps even "pant-splitting" stories along the way.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to these exceptional athletes for helping us wrap up another incredible podcast season and for highlighting the undeniable brilliance of women's polo. Congratulations on your outstanding success!

About Outside The Boards™

In 2012, Outside The Boards™ founders witnessed their first polo match and were stunned by the sport's beauty and brutality. Few sports, if any, have these combined qualities. The sport's grace, intensity and "war like" imagery creates a shock and awe viewing experience like non other. Combine this with sport's party-like atmosphere and lifestyle and you have a recipe for success.

Today, the sport has yet to experience its full potential. The industry is fragmented, riddled with politics and in-experience. Outside The Board
