Polo has never been merely a sport, it has always been a theatre of speed, skill, heritage and quiet confidence, played to the rhythm of pounding hooves and measured decisions. With the launch of Pink Beret Polo at the 26th Jodhpur Polo Season 2025, Frederique Constant stepped beyond the predictable world of luxury sponsorships and into something far more purposeful. This was Swiss watchmaking aligning itself with ambition, resilience and the evolving face of Indian sport. By placing women at the centre of one of the country’s most storied polo calendars, the brand did not just mark time but reshaped it, championing talent that has long existed yet rarely received the stage it deserved. Pink Beret Polo arrived as a declaration that precision is not confined to movements and dials, that passion is not gendered, and that when opportunity finally meets determination, the results can be as thrilling as any last chukka finish played under the Jodhpur sun.
Luxury Swiss watchmaker Frederique Constant has turned the spotlight on women’s polo with the launch of Pink Beret Polo, an all-women tournament introduced during the 26th Jodhpur Polo Season 2025. As the Official Time Partner of the season, the brand’s latest initiative reflects a growing commitment to supporting women athletes and nurturing emerging talent within India’s equestrian sporting landscape.
Announced in December 2025, Pink Beret Polo has been conceptualised as a platform to bring together talented women polo players from across the country, while also welcoming international players to compete in Jodhpur. The initiative aligns seamlessly with Frederique Constant’s philosophy, “Live Your Passion”—a message that resonates strongly within the world of sport, where discipline, precision, and perseverance are paramount.
Jodhpur’s polo season, long regarded as one of India’s most prestigious sporting calendars, provides a fitting backdrop for the tournament. Through its association with the 26th edition of the season, Frederique Constant aims to encourage greater participation in polo among young men and women, drawing attention to a sport that demands exceptional skill, unwavering focus, and physical endurance—values that mirror the meticulous craftsmanship of Swiss watchmaking.
Arun D’Silva and Jayanti Varma of Retail Interface, who have overseen the brand’s steady growth in India, see Pink Beret Polo as a long-term commitment rather than a one-off event. Across the country, women have already made notable strides in equestrian disciplines such as dressage and show jumping, with Indian riders earning recognition at Asian and global platforms. Polo, they believe, has the potential to follow a similar trajectory if the right opportunities and support systems are put in place.
Speaking on the occasion, Arun D’Silva, Director, Retail Interface, Frederique Constant India said, “Girls from Rajasthan, Punjab, Haryana, and Manipur have consistently entered the sport, but have exited after a limited time. Pink Beret Polo is about giving talented women polo players a platform to grow and compete.”
Echoing this sentiment, Jayanti Varma, Director of Retail Interface, Frederique Constant India said, “I am truly thrilled to witness the launch of the Pink Beret special tournament, a platform created exclusively for women polo players. This initiative celebrates talent, passion, and the spirit of competition, offering women athletes the recognition and opportunities they deserve. We invite women to take up polo and anticipate an exciting and meaningful journey for them.”
With Pink Beret Polo, Frederique Constant not only strengthens its presence within India’s polo circuit but also signals a broader shift toward inclusive sporting narratives—where luxury, lifestyle, and purpose intersect.
