The new POLO+10 WORLD is published

In the past polo season, some dreams of passionate players came true – among others in Zurich, Berlin, Cortina or Aspen, while others were shattered.

During the final editorial touches for the current issue of POLO+10, which you are holding in your hands right now, one quote in particular stuck in my mind. It’s from the Italian ex-banker, artist and visionary Gian Franco Brignone, who died in January and whose work we commemorate from page 78 onwards: “I have given my life for my dreams and my dreams have given me life.”

Isn‘t it a wonderful thing to have dreams in life? To hold on to previously unfulfilled dreams and goals even as we grow older – and to try to make them come true with passion and dedication? And even if we still don‘t succeed: At the end of life, we regret above all what we have NOT done; what we have NOT tried …

In this context, I find the tips from mental coach trainer Kristin Grube very inspiring: She advises us from page 44 onwards, for example, that we should internalise our goals and write them down in a kind of diary. Claire Tomlinson has definitely fulfilled many of her big dreams and goals: from page 70 we remember the icon of international polo and the first woman in the world to achieve a handicap of +5. 

I hope you enjoy looking back at wonderful highlights of the past season – such as the Patrons Cup 2021 from Polo Park Zurich or the Italia Polo Challenge in Cortina – and I wish you with all my heart that you will succeed in making one of your still unfulfilled dreams come true in the coming season.
