Organiser Isabel de Borbon commented, "I am delighted to bring Beach Polo to the shores of the Costa del Sol and the prestigious Kempinski Hotel Bahía. This has been a very ambitious project that could only be realized with the great support of Estepona's town hall and the coordination and the enthusiasm of the Kempinski Hotel Bahía since day one.

"Beach Polo is an innovative version of traditional Polo being played on smaller size sand arenas where the audience can appreciate the fast polo action at close range. Four international polo teams on around 50 agile polo horses will be competing for the first Costa del Sol Beach Polo Cup, captivating spectators and aficionados."

There are four great international polo teams participating, including "Jolly Roger - King of Polo," a team which has won many tournaments in Sotogrande and abroad. Spectators can enjoy excellent polo from French, English and Swedish teams and their top polo professionals, such as Jamie Le Hardy and Hernan Pieres.

The tournament is supported by the Estepona Town Hall and powered by Isabel de Borbon and her polo events company Polo4Ever, being the first event of its kind on the Costa del Sol. The principal sponsor is Kempinski Hotel Bahía, other sponsors include Bvlgari, Scapa Sports, Perlage, Ferragamo and Pagani.

Carla Lopes General Manager of the Kempinski Hotel Bahía commented, "We are very pleased to host and sponsor the 'Costa del Sol Beach Polo Cup' on the 19th and 20th of May, it is the first time for such an event to be held in Estepona, and it also reflects the incredible changes that are taking place in the area. The timing of this event goes hand in hand with the reopening of the hotel after an extensive redesign and the launch of three exciting new dining venues, which we hope many locals will come and enjoy. It is a real pleasure to be able to bring 'the Sport of Kings' to Padron Beach in front of the hotel. We look forward to welcoming both polo aficionados and first time spectators to enjoy the exciting matches and great atmosphere."
