Jul 28 Greenwich Polo Club: East Coast Gold Cup Final

On Sunday 25 July, polo team Altaris reigned victorious as the winners of the East Coast Gold Cup final at the Greenwich Polo Club. Teams Altaris and Ellipse came face to face for an exciting final match in which the score remained neck-to-neck, concluding with an extra-time chukka settling the final score 12-11 to Altaris.

This match marked the end of the club’s June and July East Coast High Goal series, but for those of you looking for a fun and relaxed escape from the city to the wonderful Connecticut backcountry, matches will resume at the Greenwich Polo Club starting with the East Coast Open on Sunday, August 29, 2021.

Greenwich Polo club hosts many prestigious polo tournaments, including being the club of choice in 2013 for Prince Harry to host the Sentebale Royal Salute Polo Cup. The tournaments at Greenwich Polo Club are attended by thousands of spectators from New York City, Fairfield and Westchester counties enjoying a lovely day out with friends and family. In addition to the thrilling athleticism of both the ponies and expert riders, also on offer at the Gold Cup Final last Sunday were Polo themed cocktails, delicious food truck vendors for lunch and snacks, and a celebratory asada cookout dinner after the match.
