Two years ago, thousands of spectators were thrilled as international teams competed for the Klaus Wirth Memorial Cup. Thundering hooves, cheers from the crowd, the sharp clack of polo mallets… pure emotion! The matches were accompanied by none other than the “Voice of Polo,” the sport’s most renowned commentator. With his witty remarks, he not only explained the rules of polo to guests along the sidelines and in the VIP tent but also created a lively yet tension-filled atmosphere.
In the relaxed setting of the VIP tent, fascinating conversations took place. This one-of-a-kind equestrian spectacle in the Lake Constance region offered the perfect environment for casual exchange and effective networking.
This year, too, the 1295 Polo Masters from July 11–13 will once again provide a professional setting to deliver an unforgettable experience for players, sponsors, partners, and guests alike. International companies will be present as exhibitors, while exciting regional businesses have been brought on board as partners. Renowned British umpire Marc Holmes will ensure professional fairness on the polo field.
In addition to the personal enjoyment and the opportunity to make new connections or nurture existing ones, the 1295 Polo Masters has always stood for social responsibility as well:
At the last tournament, the city-run kindergartens in Pfullendorf were supported through the donation of the raffle proceeds. In addition, the kindergartens received 1,000 bottles of healthy mineral water.
This year, Martin Reuther and his partner Bibiana Brauchle have chosen a cause close to their hearts: the Lautenbach Life and Work Community (Lebens- und Arbeitsgemeinschaft Lautenbach e.V.)
https://lautenbach-ev.de
This village community, which has existed for over 50 years, is dedicated to supporting young people who, due to higher assistance needs, find it difficult to integrate into the workforce. With the help of the community, they are prepared for the demands of working life and are given the opportunity to lead independent and self-determined lives.
One of the cornerstones of the village community’s concept is therapeutic riding.
The connection between social commitment and horses is the perfect reason for horse enthusiasts to lend their support. While they enjoy truly special moments with their guests at the 1295 Polo Masters, such experiences, unfortunately, remain out of reach for others.
That’s why the team behind the 1295 Polo Masters is deeply committed to providing financial support to help these individuals enjoy enriching moments of their own. From July 11–13 in Sylvenstal / Pfullendorf, players and guests can look forward to a prestigious event featuring international polo in a truly unique atmosphere.
