For Standing Rock´s latest international trip as part of its Polo World Tour, the team of Philipp Müller (1), Nick van Hopen (2) and Max Charlton (7) playing as Wereldhave, traveled to the city of Amsterdam to participate in the Museumplein Polo Event.
Taking place in the middle of the museum heart of Amsterdam, right next to the Van Gogh Museum, the Stedelijk Museum, the Rijksmuseum and the Concertgebouw, the unique city centre location was a spectacular backdrop for the exciting three day arena polo tournament comprising six competitive teams, organised by Paul Meulemans.
Playing in front of large supportive crowds and including games played at night under floodlight, Standing Rock´s team Wereldhave won their league games and sailed through to Sunday´s final, where they came up against team Lassus – Thomas Rietrae (0), Valentin Novillo Astrada (7) and Aki van Andel (3).
Thanks to a great team effort and with Max Charlton demonstrating his excellency in the arena and pulling out all the stops, Standing Rock / Wereldhave stormed to victory with a 19:7 win, lifting the prestigious trophy at the end of the tournament.
