Crew Clothing to sponsor England polo team for third consecutive year

Crew Clothing will be sponsoring the England polo team for the third consecutive year, as the team prepares to play for the Coronation Cup on the 25th July.

The match for the Coronation Cup will be part of Cartier International Day, the world's greatest spectator polo day organised in association with the Hurlingham Polo Association. The HPA, the sport's governing body, has yet to announce the home side's opponents for 2010, but with England able to field a 26-goal team, the crowd will be ensured a fantastic match.

Action on the field is not confined to the afternoon though. Talented and up and coming England players will take to the field at 11am to play for the Golden Jubilee Trophy. As the standard of polo is now so high in the UK, this game is the perfect opening for the England International later in the afternoon.

As well as the polo, Cartier International Day will entertain some 600 guests from the world of stage, screen, literature and fashion over a gourmet lunch prepared by Anton Mosimann, All visitors can have the opportunity to visit the unique and extensive Retail Village which offers everything from a cooling glass of champagne to a luxury dog bed; from a beautiful polo painting to the very latest Audi.

Crew Clothing Company, in its third year of sponsorship of the England Polo team, will give valuable support to the England polo team in the form of team clothing, providing T-shirts, mens polo shirts, jackets, bags plus miscellaneous other pieces. The company will have a stand at the event selling a wide range of the company's prestige clothing for men and women.

Kimberley Johnson, Events Manager for Crew Clothing, said: "'As the sponsors of the England polo team, we have had a Crew Clothing Co. stand at the Cartier International day for the last few years now and it is a fantastic day to attend. The atmosphere is electric, the polo is exciting and the fashion is inspiring - it's a great way to spend a Sunday with friends and family."

About Crew Clothing Co.
Crew Clothing Co. was started in 1993 by Alastair Parker-Swift and was run out of a small windsurfing shop in Salcombe. His first foray into the retail world - the original 93 patch rugby shirt - proved an instant success with stock selling out within days. Today the business has grown significantly with over 400 staff; however it remains a family run business which is passionate about creating clothing which epitomises British Casual Luxury.

The underlying appeal of the Crew Clothing Co. brand lies in the striking designs, vibrant colours and the quality of the fabrics; and this over the years has attracted a loyal following of customers. The current range has expanded beyond just rugby shirts and now includes polo shirts, chinos, men’s check shirts and women's casual clothing like women’s gilets, jackets and swimwear. The loyalty of customers and the company's commitment to retaining the essence of Crew has been core to enabling the brand to grow to where it is today.
