Elite Polo Club — champion of the country's first Beach Polo World Cup
In the final at The Grand, the Azerbaijanis beat Switzerland's St. Moritz 6:4; bronze went to Britain's Red Star.
The Beach Polo World Cup Sea Breeze 2026 has ended at Sea Breeze — the first international beach polo tournament held in Azerbaijan.
The winner was Azerbaijan's Elite Polo Club: the team received the main trophy and gold medals. In the final it beat Switzerland's St. Moritz 6:4, and silver went to the Swiss.
Bronze went to Britain's Red Star, which beat Moscow Polo Club 9:5 in the third-place match.
Beach polo is played on a reduced-size sand pitch with teams of three riders, so the tournament could be watched right from the shore.
