Le Tournoi de la Ville de Paris: Kazak & Sainte Mesme to play final

Kazak and Sainte Mesme will go head to head in the final of the Tournoi de la Ville de Paris at Polo de Paris. The tournament, which precedes the Open de Paris, and sees six teams, up to 12 goals, compete.

 

Polo de Paris is one of the most lavish and glamorous polo clubs of the world, and the oldest in France. Set in the heart of Bois de Boulogne, only ten minutes from the center of Paris and the banks of the Seine, the club recalls the polo field in Palermo, located in the heart of Buenos Aires. Polo reached Paris towards the end of the XIX Century, in 1891. In April of the following year, a group of polo lovers, including Polo de Paris founders Viscount de la Rochefoucald-Doudeaville and the Duke of Estrées, began constructing the club. They rented land from the City of Paris which was previously used by French officers to prepare for equestrian events. The club came together bit by bit and Polo de París was officially opened on August 1, 1892. Founder Viscount de la Rochefoucald-Doudeaville became the first President of the club. The first season kicked off on April 15, 1893, with the first edition of the Paris Open.
