World Polo League Presents Bennett Custom Awards for 2020 Founder’s Cup
The World Polo League presented custom awards created by Bennett Awards to the champions of its 2020 Founder’s Cup. The Worlld Polo League is a North American polo league that features the top players and most athletic horses in the world. The Founder’s Cup is one of the tournaments that comprise the World Polo League circuit, and one of three tournaments that Bennett Awards was commissioned to create custom awards for.
For the Founder’s Cup, Bennett Awards created a new, unique sculpture design in the form of a cylindrical cup. The cup’s surfaces are formed in the shape of a horseshoe, and the iconic horseshoe shape is visually communicated on the top rim of the cup. The sculptures are desgined and produced in three different forms: a perpetual award which holds engraved plates listing each year’s winner; large cups for the players on the championship team, and smaller cups for all participants. Each of these sculpture awards is cast in bronze, and features a black-crackle patina. The top rim of the cup is high-polished to accentuate the horseshoe shape.
The 2020 Wold Polo League Founder’s Cup was held February 18 – March 1, 2020, in the area of Palm Beach, Florida. The 2020 champions of this tournament were the Scone Polo Team.
