Come out and celebrate father’s day at polo this Sunday! This weekend’s match marks the first final of the 2021 season at Greenwich Polo Club, playing for the East Coast Bronze Cup. It’s a rematch of last Sunday’s game with the legendary White Birch Farm taking on Palm Beach Equine Clinic for the tournament’s first ever championship.
White Birch Farm (4-0) has swept the competition in pool play and their semi-final with an unbeaten record to begin the season, punching their ticket to the final with a tight 9-8 victory over Level Select CBD (0-4) in the first semi-final. Palm Beach Equine Clinic (2-2) will come into Sunday’s final after making a statement in their semi-final against Altaris (2-2), scoring 12 goals after trailing at halftime to take the match 17-11.
It's looking like a beautiful weather day at the polo club, so be sure to get there early and grab a good picnic spot on the grass or take a stroll around the field. As always, The Cup Bearer will be the exclusive bar provider of Greenwich Polo Club and mixing custom cocktails along with a full selection of wines, beers, and bubbles to choose from.
