Park Place claimed the High Goal Terralpa Silver Cup, following a thrilling final played on Saturday August 12, on Los Pinos ground 3,  Sotogrande. The title was decided in extra chukka, when Hilario Ulloa produced the winning goal to secure the 13-12 victory over San Luis. The contest was very balanced, with both teams exchanging the leadership, until it reached extra time. That’s when Park Place’s number 4 player converted a penalty from the spot, which gave them their first ever title in Sotogrande, and in their debut the International Polo Tournament Andalucía.
