2008 Mercedes-Benz Polo Challenge
 Once again this year, the
summer polo matches at the coveted Mercedes-Benz Polo Challenge were among the most exciting in the
sport of polo. Some of the world's greatest equestrian athletes competed at Bridgehampton Polo Club
for one of sport's most treasured prizes.
An Overview of the Sport
A polo match lasts about 2 hours and is divided into
6 timed periods called chukkers. The object of the game
is to hit the ball down the
field and through the goal posts to
score. During half time, spectators
go onto the field in a social tradition called divot stomping. Check
current weather conditions and
forecast.
July 19th thru August 23rd
General admission tickets are available on the day of the polo match. Admission is $20 per car.
All proceeds benefit the South Fork Breast Health Coalition. The VIP tent is reserved
for sponsors and their invited guests only. For information on private field-side tailgate tents,
please call 212-420-9420 x29.
