National Commander-in-Chief Cup

The National Commander-in-Chief Cup is an annual competition held between the branches. Each branch forms a team of their best players to battle in the arena. It is held in a split string format, meaning each team will play the same horses in alternating chukkars. This levels the playing field and truly tests each rider's horsemanship abilities as well as their mallet talent on the same caliber of horse.
