The Memorial Fundador Enrique Zobel kicked off on Thursday, July 8, in Sotogrande. The tournament sees eight teams, split in two levels (14-goal and 8-goal), compete. The tournament will run through to July 18, with the most important clubs of the area – Ayala, Santa María Polo Club and Dos Lunas – hosting the action.
