The Calcot Manor Hotel Country Fair 16th - 17th June 2007

INCORPORATING THE ALL ENGLAND CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS FOR THE THE ARGENTINE CLUB CUP AND THE CALCOT MANOR HOTEL CUP IN AID OF THE COUNTRYSIDE FOUNDATION FOR EDUCATION

This event was started in 1998 and is now a two-day Country Fair with an attendance of over 6,000. The event sponsor since its inauguration has been Calcot Manor Hotel.

The festivities begin on Tuesday 12th June with the semi-finals of the Argentine Club Cup, which boasts the highest standard of tournament polo played in Europe, with the finals on Saturday 16th June. Last year the tournament was won by Hurlingham (an all-English quartet) who beat Mystery Creek.

The final forms the centre piece of the Calcot Manor Country Fair (16th – 17th June) with the gates opening at 10.30am for the first match at 11.30am. Tickets cost just £10 per car on Tuesday and £20 on Saturday and Sunday with a reserved grandstand seat costing just £15. There will be around 70 tradestands, country side displays and family entertainments including carousel and bungy trampolene over the two days, most of which are free of charge.

Sunday will once again see two teams battle it out for the Calcot Manor Hotel Cup, last year won by a Highgrove team that included HRH Prince Harry and England coach Claire Tomlinson, helping to raise over £30,000 for the Countryside Foundation For Education.

There are a number of commercial opportunities available to businesses at different levels and the tournament will be covered on Sky Sports
