Guards announce Land Rover sponsorship

Club celebrates its Jubilee with new, three-year partnership

Guards Polo Club have announced a three-year Corporate Partnership with Land Rover. As well as becoming a Club Partner, Land Rover will also become title sponsor of The Duke of Cornwall Trophy, the Club’s final 16 goal tournament of the season, which is staged from the 1-23 August. 
Speaking on the new agreement, Neil Hobday, CEO of Guards Polo Club said: "It is fantastic to have such an iconic British brand as Land Rover supporting us financially, with vehicles and through the sponsorship of the prestigious Duke of Cornwall Trophy. This attractive deal, which is for an initial period of three years, will benefit the Club even further as Land Rover expands its activation with us at Smith’s Lawn. Land Rover is well established within the equestrian world, but this sponsorship agreement will be their first in polo at the highest level in the UK and Guards Polo Club will provide the perfect platform for them to make their mark in the sport.”
Jaguar Land Rover’s UK Marketing Director Laura Schwab, commented: "For Land Rover, obviously we have a long history within equestrian sports, especially in the UK, and so for us, we really saw polo, and specifically Guards, as a wonderful extension to our venture in equestrian sports. It was a perfect fit for our brand. We believe it will be a wonderful partnership. We see Guards Polo Club as the pinnacle of polo in the UK."
