Our Story
The idea for a female empowering polo cup was born during a trip to India in 2012. It was inspired by one of the miniature paintings located in the Mehrangarh Fort in Jodhpur. The painting depicts the Maharaja Man Singh, a celebrated Indian ruler and avid polo player, playing with three women.
The image of a man playing with three powerful women inspired a desire to create a bridge between India and Argentina, promoting women’s polo and rendering tribute to Maharani Gayatri Devi of Jaipur. The result was the Maharani Polo Cup, first hosted in 2013. The tournament is unique in that it is one of the few existing “mix polo tournaments” with teams comprising of three women and one male.
Each year, the cup is hosted during the most important week in Argentina’s Palermo Polo Open season and attracts distinguished polo and horse lovers.
Women’s polo is one of the fastest growing segments in the sport. The Maharani Polo Cup seeks to give room for women to thrive and succeed in it while also bridging cultural gaps between Argentina and India.
The Maharani Polo Cup has gained a reputation as a mix polo tournament with the best setting and players. Attendees can be sure to enjoy this innovative and forward-thinking event which is hosted in the beautiful Nuestra Tierra near Open Door, Argentina.
