When polo is your sport, and Sunday is your day, not even dipping temperatures and the Super Bowl can keep you away from the International Polo Club (IPC). Polo enthusiasts, loyal spectators, out-of-town travelers, and the social set indulged in the opportunity to pull out their winter fashions and enjoy the midwinter Florida weather, while blue skies and ample sunshine brightened the afternoon. The hard-charging, edge-of-your-seat Ylvisaker Cup match kept fans focused on the field, as the two elite teams exchanged goal after goal through six chukkers of play. Horseware/5 Star/Tackeria won in a thrilling sudden-death overtime, defeating La Indiana 11-10.

Veuve Clicquot, the Official Champagne Sponsor during IPC’s 2016 polo season, lit up the exclusive Mallet Grille with their bright, branded orange/yellow champagne glasses filled with generous pours of the luxury bubbly. Members and guests delighted in the festive reception, and toasted the continual success of the high-goal winter polo season.
