LA ESTANCIA POLO PICNIC 2011

Dear guests and friends of polo,

Welcome to our 2011 international polo tournament at La Estancia Polo Club, at LA ESTANCIA POLO PICNIC 2011.

For more than a decade, our club has organized high quality social and sporting events and helped our wonderful sport take root here in Hungary. Our members have played polo around the world which serves to promote Hungary as one of the leading polo nations in Central and Eastern Europe.

Organizing high class polo events was and is only possible due to the support we enjoy from our sponsors. The family-like atmosphere of our club is what our members and visitors are looking for in our today's often superficial world.

We hope you enjoyed watching the fast and dynamic sport of polo while sampling all that our picnic had to offer in Budapest's beautiful surrounding countryside.

Celebrities bicycle polo, Mercedes Oldtimer Club presentation and the usual ladies hat competition guaranteed the guests' entertainment , between the polo matches.

Mercedes Benz Pappas Auto team won the polo tournament played by Piero Dillier, Philipp and Uwe Zimmermann. The second place was earned by Caprice team , with the participation of Michael Goldberg , Peter Grundberg and Dvoracsek György . Third place went to Team Uniqa with Renate Seidler , Michael Husted and Gábor Rónai.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank our sponsors and supporters for their help and contribution, the players for their fair sporting spirit, and all of you for joining us at La Estancia Polo Picnic 2011!!

Uwe Zimmermann
President La Estancia Polo Club
