About Us

Overview

The Courage Cup Board and 2008 Meadow Matches Host Committee want to thank everyone who attended and participated in this year's Meadow Matches event. Photo's from the event are available to view and purchase through Joseph Allen Photography.

Meadow Matches is one of the largest polo events on the East Coast, and features a day of exciting polo matches including The 5th Annual Courage Cup match - featuring the talented kids of the Work to Ride program playing along with professional polo players and celebrities. The 5th Annual Courage Cup match is sponsored this year by The Meltzer Group and MicroStrategy. For the second year, there will be a Segway Polo Charity Challenge match. This year it will be "Gavels & Mallets", featuring participants from Washington law firms, and presented by Legal Times and Hotel AKA, a new collection of exquisite, luxury extended-stay hotel residences. The First Chukker Foundation will be participating for the third year in a polo exhibition game. This exciting day of polo matches brings Washington's charity set, DC professionals, and the polo community together for a day of charity, champagne and chukkers!

The Courage Cup is an IRS designated 501(c) (3) non-profit corporation which was established to help at-risk urban youth. We support programs in the mid-Atlantic region which give disadvantaged children individualized attention and a positive alternative activity to keep them in school and off the streets. In addition to supporting these programs financially, we also recruit volunteers for their activities.

Attending Meadow Matches

There are a number of options for attending The Courage Cup's Meadow Matches. You can purchase a tailgate spot or tent and host a party for your friends, clients or employees. Or you can host a reserved table in our VIP tent or purchase individual tickets, where we take care of all the details for you. We also have bus transportation from Georgetown which includes a free General Admission ticket. If you choose General Admission, remember to pack a picnic as you will need to bring your own food and beverages. Remember to bring plenty of water as it may be a really warm day!
