On Saturday, November 30th the International Cup and Legends of Polo Carlos Gracida Memorial are set to take place once again at Grand Champions Polo Club. The success of this annual event is thanks to the efforts of Melissa and Marc Ganzi who have worked hard to create a friendly setting for polo that is welcoming to all, shines with first-class style and has become a wonderful holiday tradition. 

A portion of proceeds from the event will help benefit the Museum of Polo and Hall of Fame, a 501 (c) 3 non-profit, educational organization. It is the only museum in the world dedicated to preserving the history and tradition of the sport of polo making it a unique treasure to not just our local community, but throughout the world. The Museum is supported through individual donations from polo people like you and events like this. We need your help to continue our mission, so what better way to help support your Museum than to attend a fabulous day of polo and entertainment at Grand Champions Polo Club.
