In an exhilarating season finale, Team Polo Sylt emerged victorious against Team COSMOPOLO / PoloPark Berlin, securing first place in Germany‘s last grass polo tournament of the year. This event, held from October 13th to 15th, 2023 at PoloPark Berlin, attracted four international polo teams who, with around 70 polo horses, battled for the win.
Autumn showcased its finest colors and provided optimal conditions for thrilling chukkas over the course of three days. With expert commentary by „the Polospeaker“ Jan Zavazal and musical ambiance set by Polo DJ Sebastian, referee Marco Zubrod ensured the adherence to the rules on the field.
Unfortunately, Team POLO+10 had to settle for 4th place after suffering two losses by a narrow margin of half a goal and playing one game to a draw.
Thomas Bauer and his crew took care of the culinary needs of the players and guests, who enjoyed the exciting matches and the special atmosphere of the tournament.
With this event, Baltic Polo Events concludes a remarkable season with a total of ten polo events involving around 200 polo players and approximately 700 polo horses. This action-packed year culminated in a unique blend of sport and culture as the season-ending tournament was combined with an Oktoberfest celebration.
Now, Baltic Polo Events is heading into a well-deserved winter break. However, the anticipation for the 2024 polo season is already mounting.
