The Greenwich Polo Club is amped to kick off yet another memorable season with its standard gold-star roster of some of the sport’s most renowned and decorated athletes, both human and equine, who will face off against one another at its magnificent Conyers Farm grounds from June through September.
Specifically, the 2025 season will kick off this Sunday, June 8th with the Dairy Boy American Cup, that will be followed up by a host of Sunday afternoon matches held at the club’s famous pastoral back-country Greenwich locale through September.
Players such as Mariano Aguerre, the iconic Argentinian high goaler, along with the Panelo brothers and so many other premier polo athletes based out of South America as well as Wellington, Florida and various other locales will go head-to-head against one another in such tournaments as the Greenwich Cup, East Coast Silver Cup, East Coast Gold Cup and East Coast Open throughout the season.
According to Harlan Zeerip, the Greenwich Polo Club’s Director of Marketing and Events, the season is looking to be another exciting one on all fronts.
“We’re really looking forward to the season kicking off at Greenwich Polo Club,” said Zeerip. “It’s always a good feeling when the gates open and the first horse is on the field and people are enjoying their refreshments and spending time with friends in the sun on the lawn or in the grandstand.”
Along with the matches, the Greenwich Polo Club will also feature its host of dedicated partners, including Barbados Tourism Marketing Inc. and Audi, as well as an array of various retail and food truck vendors.
At the same time, the spectators expected to attend matches this year will no doubt provide yet another vital component of this year’s Greenwich Polo Club experience, as they are famously known for their enthusiasm, involvement and energy in regard to supporting the players and ponies at the matches.
“There’s something special about seeing people come back year after year, whether it’s families, friends or longtime sponsors all enjoying a great afternoon of polo together,” said Zeerip. Others agreed.
“With great excitement, I’m looking forward to capturing the 2025 Greenwich Polo Club season,” said Claudia Suica of PoloFashionLifestyle, covering the matches for PoloHub Social Media based out of Argentina. “As a photographer, there’s nothing more thrilling than freezing the moments of power, elegance and true sportsmanship, from the players and the incredible ponies. Here’s to another unforgettable season on the field.”
