Patrick O'Dwyer

Big debut at high goal in England

The Queen's Cup youngest player

May 24, 2013

By PoloLine

Patrick O'Dwyer is only 19-years old, and already had a more than interesting debut in the Queen's Cup: he started the play that ended up with John-Paul Clarkin scoring the winning goal in extra chukka, to secure Black Bears a win in their return to the big leagues in British polo. 
Coming from Carlos Casares, Argentina, Patrick, better known as Paco, the competition's youngest player, talked exclusively to PoloLine, to tell all about his very first experience in British high goal.

How did you join Black Bears?
Well, my dad went to University in New Zealand, and one of his friends invited me to play. I was there for four years. John-Paul Clarkin, among others, watched me play, and they also invited me. Actually, it's my fourth year in England, I've been in Cambridge with Fabio Lavinia for the two first years, then came to Shiplake.

Today was your very first 22-goal match, right?
Yes, and it was a pleasure, a lot of fun, my first time in the Queen's Cup. Although I've played some 22-goal practices, this was my first game. In Argentina I've also played some 22-goal practices, but regarding tournaments, just 20-goal.

How did you feel to play 22-goal?
It was great. I hope to play even better games.
