Iconic Sports Brand Donates to Equestrian and Polo Charities Chosen by the Finalists

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., March 8, 2023 (Newswire.com)
–
U.S. Polo Assn., the official brand of the United States Polo Association (USPA), celebrates International Women’s Day on March 8, the globally celebrated day dedicated to economic, social and gender equality for women, alongside the 2023 U.S. Open Women’s Polo Championship^®. The most prestigious cup in women’s polo in the United States runs from March 10-19. 

U.S. Polo Assn.’s involvement with the most celebrated cup for women’s polo in the United States includes donations made to polo and equestrian charities selected by the finalists in the 2023 U.S. Open Women’s Polo Championship. 

The qualifying games will be played at Port Mayaca Polo Club, while the U.S. Open Women’s Polo Championship Final will be played once again at the world-renowned USPA National Polo Center (NPC) – Wellington on March 19. ESPN will distribute the Women’s Championship Final for sports fans around the globe, where it will be available on ESPN’s family of brands. Check your local listings for air times.

The 2023 U.S. Open Women’s Polo Championship is being played alongside International Women’s Day which honors women’s achievements around the world while challenging inequality and working to increase visibility for women. 

“Not only do these athletes exude incredible tenacity and strength on the field, but they also do off of the field. From lawyers, to entrepreneurs, to mothers, to movie producers, to students, to animal conservationists, and more, the contestants in this year’s Open fully show what a woman is capable of in their off-field endeavors,” said Meghan Gracida, USPA Women’s Committee Chair. “It is the great sport of polo that brings all of these women together to empower one another as players while exhibiting their love for the ultimate four-legged teammates—horses. I am honored to again be involved with this most special women’s polo event.”

Prominent players in this year’s high-goal tournament include Hope Arellano, Hazel Jackson, and Mia Cambiaso, to name a few.

“As a fourth-generation polo player, my love for the game started at a very young age and continues to provide opportunities for me to participate in top-rated polo tournaments, like the 2023 U.S. Open Women’s Polo Championship, which I am so grateful to be a part of,” said Hope Arellano, professional polo player and U.S. Polo Assn. Brand Ambassador. “I look forward to competing against incredibly talented women polo players and being surrounded by those in the South Florida polo community who support women’s professional polo.”

Unlike other team sports, women and men play polo together as equals, and approximately 40% of USPA club members are female. Women are, in fact, the fastest-growing segment in the sport of polo at the club level.

“The 2023 U.S. Open Women’s Polo Championship is both a celebration and showcase of women’s many polo achievements,” said J. Michael Prince, President and CEO of USPA Global Licensing, the worldwide licensor of the multi-billion-dollar U.S. Polo Assn. brand. “U.S. Polo Assn. continues to support the sport of polo and its players around the world both on and off the field, and this tournament highlights some of the very best female players in the sport.”

Switch Takes ‘Accessible Luxury’ to a New Level by Launching Luxury Handbags as Part of Its Core Membership

LOS ANGELES, March 7, 2023 (Newswire.com)
–
Luxury accessory rental startup Switch has launched handbags as part of its low-priced Core membership tier. Until now, Switch’s Core membership exclusively featured jewelry. The expansion means that members will be able to borrow designer handbags by luxury fashion brands including Chanel, Louis Vuitton, and Christian Dior for $45 per month.

While other luxury rental services have emerged in recent years, none have offered access to luxury handbags at such a low price point. The move highlights Switch’s ambition to make luxury more attainable.

“Switch is all about challenging traditional notions of luxury,” said Adriel Darvish, Co-Founder and CEO of Switch. “By adding handbags to our Core membership, our goal is to make the luxury experience, which has traditionally been hyper-exclusive and intimidating, more inclusive and fun.”

The move follows the wildly successful rollout of its higher-end tier Switch Select at the end of last year. Select features jewelry and handbags with an average retail value of $4,000, which members can borrow for $195 per month. Because of the continued high demand, aspiring Select members must sign up for a waitlist, from which members are admitted on a rolling basis.

“The success of our Select membership has highlighted the immense demand for luxury handbags,” added Switch President and co-founder Liana Kadisha Cohn. “Once we saw that customer interest, we quickly responded by making it a part of our Core offering as well.”

All Switch plans allow members to borrow their pieces for as long as they want, exchange them as often as they want, and purchase their favorites at a discounted price.

ABOUT SWITCH

Switch is on a mission to revolutionize luxury by providing unparalleled access to designer accessories. For a monthly fee starting at $45/month, members can borrow from an ever-expanding trove of designer jewelry and handbags and exchange it any time, as often as they wish. Members also earn credit each month, which they can use towards purchasing their favorites at a discount. Switch is the grown-up’s dress-up trunk — a place for play, discovery, and owning your style (albeit not literally).
