Mon 13th May 2024Cartier Queen’s Cup Draw
The 2024 Cartier Queen’s Cup will take place at Guards Polo Club from Tuesday 21 May – Sunday 16 June, with 19 teams competing in the tournament – the highest team entries for some time. This year's team line-up includes for the first time a father-daughter combination with Adolfo and Mia Cambiaso representing La Dolfina. Adolfo, a record holder with 10 Queen’s Cup wins, shares the field with his son, Adolfo Junior, playing for La Dolfina Great Oaks. Adding to the familial dynamic are Adolfo’s nephews, Bartolome and Camilo Castagnola, competing for Desert Palm and Dubai, respectively. Among the elite 10-goal players this season, Camilo Castagnola stands out, alongside Polito Pieres, who plays for Hugues Carmignac’s Talandracas, Hilario Ulloa for Andrey Borodin’s Park Place, and Facundo Pieres, who joins his brother Gonzalito on Guy Schwarzenbach’s Black Bears team. All matches will be livestreamed at Guards TV in association with Polocam here.
