“The Cell C Inanda Africa Cup is a renowned Polo event at Inanda Club and to have sponsors such as Cell C (headline sponsor) as well as BMW Sandton (official vehicle partner ) who all share the same creativity, innovation and boldness, be a part of the event, was exhilarating.” “Guests were treated to a day of #ARTANDAFRICANSPIRIT as they all stepped out in traditional polo style and had the opportunity to create unforgettable moments. And this is what we look forward to each year.” Paul Oosthuizen, Inanda Club General Manager.
