It was not all about polo at the FirstCaribbean International Bank Wealth Management Jaipur Polo Trophy game last Sunday at Caymanas Polo Club St Catherine.

It was the battle between the Indians and the Jamaicans at FirstCaribbean International Bank Wealth Management Jaipur Trophy game at Caymanas Polo Club on Sunday. Jamaica came out victorious. However, there was no tension in the air as people came out simply to just unwind.

While the main attraction was polo, it was not all about the sport as there was additional entertainment for the young ones and the adults to enjoy. For the kids, there were pony rides, giving the parents a bit of a break.

truly competitive match

And for the women, there was a sari-tying contest, which had the women looking divine in different shades. At the end of the truly competitive match, guests jammed to the music, and food, until they and/or the children were ready to exit the venue in anticipation of the week ahead.

And later that evening, it was party time in Stony Hill as the visitors got a taste of Jamaican hospitality at Kenny Benjamin's residence.


Arjun Kalra is certainly the man of the moment. Here, he glows in the company of these women (from left) - Eesha Garg, Merciline Garg and Justine Rumeau.
