MORITZ 2019 7 8 SNOW POLO WORLD CUP ST. MORITZ 2019 2018’s three-day Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz spectacular was bigger and better than ever before. Spectators and players alike enjoyed the perfect combination of sunshine, socialising and Swiss hospitality, a truly magical experience for all involved. Snow, sun and a bevy of fur-clad spectators, with their eye permanently fixed on the snow-covered lake in the heart of Switzerland’s Engadin Valley – what more could you ask for? Each year, hordes of snow polo fans and followers head to this Alpine mecca to witness the winter season’s highlight, the Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz. As The ‘Godfather of Snow Polo’ Reto Gaudenzi, the man responsible for introducing snow polo to the world and now CEO and organiser extraordinaire of the best snow polo tournament in the world put it, “God must be a polo player”. The ‘Man in the Sky’ had turned his barometer to ‘fair and dry for polo’ between 26 – 28 January as not only had the lake’s ice been frozen to the optimum depth, but the snow over the week before had been cool and substantial. During Friday and Saturday, it quickly became clear who the two strongest teams were going to be. Cartier and Maserati bounced through their initial matches against Badrutt’s Palace and Azerbaijan Land of Fire respectively, with unsurprising wins marking their dominance on the tournament rankings. But, if Cartier and Maserati had the leading poll positions, Azerbaijan Land of Fire had the spectators’ hearts. First time Snow Polo World Cup competitors, the boys in white from the Middle East/Europe border came to St. Moritz with not only their noble steeds, but three reserves, their own band, a fully SNOW POLO WORLD CUP ST. MORITZ 2019 9 10 SNOW POLO WORLD CUP ST. MORITZ 2019 functioning catering department rustling up Azeri treats for spectators on the sidelines and their own throng of spectators with musical instruments and loud singing voices. After two days of competitive action, it was Cartier and Maserati who faced each other in The Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz 2018 Final. As the first ball fired into play, the tentative hush that had settled on the St. Moritz grandstand rallied into cries of elation as the Cartier boys thundered up and down the field, with Maserati close on their heels. Cartier may have led going into half-time, but this meant nothing in the Maserati camp as the players went into the third chukka with renewed vigour and fire in their bellies. Hissam Ali Hyder immediately took control of the ball, with Gerardo Mazzini and Robert Strom trailing in his wake. Cartier had been momentarily taken by surprise and with a piece of poetic play from Strom as he dribbled past not one, nor two, but three red shirts to goal, the Maserati crowd erupted as the scores read 3½-3 going into the final chukka. Chris Hyde exploded onto the field for the final big push, he perfected a penalty 4, putting his team ahead 4-3½. Maserati tried and tried to push forward into Cartier’s half and with 1.41 minutes left on the clock, it looked like they might convert one last attempt on goal. Tick, tick, tick…and it was all over. The crowd went wild as Rommy Gianni successfully retained the Snow Polo World Cup title for a third consecutive year and Chris ‘The Prof’ Hyde held high the trophy for his seventh win!

  • The Bilderbergers in Switzerland
    The Bilderbergers in Switzerland By Peter Koenig Region: Europe Global Research, May 30, 2019 Theme: History The 67th Bilderberg Meeting is taking place in Montreux, Switzerland from 30 May – 2 June 2019, where the about 130 invitees – so far confirmed – from 23 countries, are staying at one of Switzerland’s most luxurious venues, the Montreux Palace hotel. About a quarter of the attendees are women. The Bilderberg meetings started at the onset of the Cold War, as a discussion club of American and European leaders, a fortification against communism, in clear text, against the Soviet Union. The first event took place in 1954 at the Bilderberg hotel in the Dutch town of Oosterbeek. Ever since, meetings of the Bilderberg Group were held annually, in different locations in the western world, most of them, though, in North America. It’s not a coincidence that the Bilderbergers meet in Switzerland. Switzerland is one of the Group’s favored host country outside the US. Switzerland hosted their gatherings at least five times before this upcoming Montreux event (1960 – Palace Hotel, Bürgenstock; 1970 – Grand Hotel Quellenhof, Bad Ragaz, St. Gallen; 1981 – Palace Hotel, Bürgenstock; 1995 – Palace Hotel, Bürgenstock; 2011 – Suvretta House, St. Moritz). The conferences of the Bilderbergers are the most secretive events, managed by those who pull the strings behind world leaders – politicians, corporate CEOs, big finance, and other business execs – artists, and the who-is-who of the world elite. And we are talking of the western world. Other than about ten attendees from Turkey, Poland, Bulgaria and Estonia, participants are North Americans or Europeans.
