The Charity Polo Classic was founded in 2011 by Advertising Executive and Professional Polo Player, Chris Gannon and Patrick Moraites. The men decided to combine their love for philanthropy and polo to create an event that is unlike any other in the Tampa Bay area. Now, 10+ years later we’re on track to raise more money than ever before at our largest event yet!
