Both golf and polo are big names in the hectic sporting calendar of the French Riviera. The International Polo Cup was held in July at the Polo Club in Saint Tropez.

Several prominent annual golf tournaments are also taking place at various spots along this exquisite stretch of coastline each year, it is safe to say that if you are a fan of golf and polo than the Cote d’Azur will do more than quench any aspirations for an annual golf or polo fix.

Although satiating both polo and golf yearnings at once is the France India Business Cup, which takes place at the Gassin Golf & Country Club and the Polo Club of Saint Tropez.

This prominent annual event is now in its fourth year and is being held on 17^th and 18^th October, 2012.

Both players and non-playing guests are invited to welcome cocktails at the ultra-glamorous Villa Belrose that overlooks the Bay of St. Tropez. Cocktails are then followed by drinks at the Pan Dei Palais, a boutique hotel, where guests ‘slip into the luxury of an Indian princess’.

The following day commences with breakfast at the Gassin Golf and Country Club followed by a morning of golf competitions.

Players and guests will then be wined and dined at the exclusive Polo Club of Saint Tropez. The remainder of the day will be dedicated to various polo competitions, including the highly anticipated “France India Business Cup”.
