Edge Retreats Event At Ham Polo For Ritz Challenge

Edge Retreats put on a lavish bash at Ham Polo Club on Sunday for The Ritz London Polo Challenge.
Luke McCormick, the founder of Edge Retreats, is a keen rider and felt that Ham Polo Club was the ideal place to entertain the likes of Forbes, International eXcellence Magazine and the Financial Times.
It was also the most gloriously sunny day and some great Polo matches such as the Ritz Polo Challenge and the Tiger Mountain sporting Ham Polo versus Accra from Ghana taking centre stage.
We all started the afternoon with a few glasses of bubbly and then sat down for a slap up feast with salads galore, salmon and pesto and the best coronation chicken in London!
Desert was a pie extravaganza with the prize going to the bannofee pie, though the lemon tart came a close second.
Post lunch the games started with the Indian Trophy Cup pitting the Cavaliers against Ventura-Pauly, followed by the Ritz Polo Challenge and then the local match with the Kylin Polo Team taking on Foxtrot Whisky.
The Ritz Club took on Ritz London with a tremendous game showing that when it came to rivalry you can't beat inter company competitions.
This was then followed by the Invitational Match with Accra Polo Club from Ghana facing Ham Polo Club, both handicap 6. This was the liveliest match of the day with some great play and agression from both sides.
Every ball was hard fought and despite Ham Polo losing 6-2, they contested the game to the bitter end. It was a fair return as they won the last time Acrra played here at Ham Polo, so the next match will be an exciting decider. Time to pop over to Ghana for this game!
There is a long history between the two clubs as one of the committee members, James Lange, a great promoter of the noble game, grew up and first played Polo in Ghana at Accra.
The afternoon was spent admiring the plays, restoring the divots and generally admiring the wonderful terrace at Ham Polo Club in basking sunshine. It was a terrific event and many thanks to Edge Retreats for the exciting day at the Polo.
