PAST PROJECTS AND EVENTS

Polo School Mexico
Polo School Mexico

Together with polo professional Miguel Gomez de Parada, Ellie co-founded the first formal polo school in Mexico City. Ellie spent three months preparing to formally launch Polo School Mexico, setting up a business plan, conducting market research, working with web design to establish the brand online, and finally by opening the school. For the 5 years that Ellie lived in Mexico, Polo School Mexico was the premier polo school in the country, providing lessons, horse livery, sales, tournament event production, and community gatherings. Ellie brought many new players to the sport and built the foundation for future successful Mexican polo school programs, which are still operating sustainably in Mexico. Ellie was particularly influential in the formation of Women's Polo in Mexico, and she loves meeting up around the world to play with former students and teammates. She still visits to play often!

Mexico Polo Tour

Together with Top Sports, Ellie helped promote Mexico's first low-goal tournament circuit designed to build momentum around the new wealth and new talent concentrating at the foundational level of the sport. Teaming up with Ana Gonzalez de Nennie, Rafa Valdez, and Alfonso Torres, Ellie formed the only team with women participants on the tour. This event circuit helped Ellie further develop skills in team management, polo logistics, and event production. She thanks Tucané, and Top Sports for the experience!

Together with Ignacio Egido, the Federacion Mexicana de Polo, Billy Steta, and the team from PoloLine, Ellie helped organize a high-goal arena polo tournament at the luxury Tres Vidas Acapulco Beach Resort.
