About La Aguada Polo Club
La Aguada Polo Club was born in 1959, in Córdoba, as an initiative of Julio “Yayo” Novillo Astrada, a fan of both polo and polo breeding.
Early in the 70’s he bought some fields. Today, La Aguada is a Polo Clinic and Resort of about 300 hectares, with 250 horses in training, 5 polo fields and 2 tacking fields.
The Polo Clinic offers the best practices for guests who are either starting playing polo or improving their skills.
In La Rosada, the main house, guests find the ideal atmosphere to enjoy a real farm life experience.
It´s here where La Aguada Polo Team train and take care of their horses, ane where the annual tournaments, such as the Julio Novillo Astrada Cup, take place. Those who visit them, will enjoy the warmth of the Novillo Astrada family, as true friends of the house.
