With preparations underway for the Saturday, May 17 Polo for Freedom match in Virginia, as well as the highly anticipated Sunset Polo match supporting We Will Survive Cancer in September, Florida’s International Polo Tour (IPT) returned to its Wellington roots recently with a high-energy, victorious match at the Grand Champions Polo Club.

 

“We are filled with nothing but gratitude for our community for making such a wonderful event not only possible, but a glowing success,” said IPT and Hotels at Sea founder Tareq Salahi, the team captain. “With each match, our commitment to and love for polo only grows, and we look forward to continued support into our most exciting events of the 2025 season.”

 

IPT’s Hotels at Sea team played two matches, with Salahi bringing in three goals as the evening’s high scorer.

 

“We hope to see many of our loyal fans in Virginia later this month for our match raising much-needed funds for the incredible organization Hostage Aid, a game guaranteed to get your heart pumping while directly supporting the rescue of hostages globally,” Salahi said.

 

The International Polo Tour, founded by Salahi, brings the love of polo to a wider audience, uniting international cultures in a celebration of both their common bonds and their diversity. From snow polo to beach polo to elephant polo, IPT provides support worldwide, including Argentina, Australia, Asia, England, South America, Italy and throughout the United States.

 

The IPT is thankful for all of its incredible sponsors and supporters, including ESPN, Hotels at Sea Luxury Cruises, Resorts at Sea, Equine Sports Marketing, Twilight Polo Club, Stella Artois, Nutrl Vodka, Oui Producciones, Celebration Winery, Naviva Four Seasons Resort, Oasis Winery, Salty Bottom Blue and Michelob Ultra.
