Aiken Equine Charities Cup sees Snow, Magrini and other polo stars in action on May 5th at New Bridge Polo and Country Club at 4pm.
Aiken, SC – Few towns in the USA sport enough resident professional polo players to produce a 30-goal polo game. Today Aiken is one-such town and will show off its crop of homegrown and adopted high-goal players with the top caliber 30-goal Aiken Equine Charities Cup to benefit Hitchcock Woods Foundation. Adam Snow, Matias Magrini, Owen Rinehart, Julio Arellano, Tiger Kneece, Julian Daniels and John Gobin will be seven of the eight leading pro players putting on a show at New Bridge Polo and Country Club on May 5th at 5.00pm.
“It should be a great game,” said Snow. “We are waiting for confirmation on the final player for the match and expect to have two highly competitive teams on the field for a top quality polo game that the spectators will enjoy.”
The Aiken Equine Charities Cup will be one of the highlights of an action-packed weekend that kicks off with the Lobster Races in downtown Aiken on Friday night and concludes with the finals of the Hall of Fame Challenge Cup, hosted – as is the 30-goal game – by 302 Polo on Sunday May 6th.
A variety of sponsorship packages are available for the 30-goal game at New Bridge on May 5th, providing options for spectators wishing to tailgate or enjoy a VIP fieldside experience at the game.
