A convincing 4-2.5 victory of NCBA over Johnny Walker propelled them as one of the top contenders of the Christmas Ndume Trophy when the first matches kicked off at Manyatta Polo Club yesterday.
Twelve-year-old Angus Burden, a pupil at Pembroke International School, scored a hat-trick for NCBA as L. Daisy managed another goal to give their side the first victory as teams were fighting hammer and tongs not to be relegated to the Plate Competition by winning opening matches.
