Nairobi’s social calendar hit a high note over the weekend as Jamhuri Park played host to the annual Simon Kuseyo Tournament, culminating in a thrilling international showdown where the visiting team from Nigeria ultimately triumphed to lift the coveted cup for the second year.

Beyond the thunder of hooves and high-stakes chukkas on the turf, the weekend evolved into a vibrant celebration of cross-border camaraderie, style, and culture, uniting sports fans and Nairobi’s fashion-forward crowd.

​As the official title sponsor, Kenya Breweries Limited premium beer, Tusker Malt successfully turned the grounds into the ultimate weekend lifestyle destination.

Spectators gathered in chic afternoon attire for an immersive pitch-side experience, enjoying relaxed lounge settings, fine social networking, and signature serves like the crisp Tusker Malt Shandy.

​The tournament served as a fitting tribute to the late Kenyan polo pioneer Simon Kuseyo, honoring a rich history of international rivalry while celebrating the growing enthusiasm for Polo in Kenya.

Naomi Kiema emphasized the brand’s commitment to continue elevating Kenya’s lifestyle and social scene ensuring that fans get an exceptional experience by the field.

“We have had an amazing two-day sporting event that has, as usual brought out sports fan, the enthusiasts and fashion-forward nairobians who have enjoyed the pitch-side view of the game and  the diverse cultural offerings. As KBL, we look forward to maintain the momentum and elevating the social scenes as they enjoy the game,” she said.

Tusker Malt’s connection to the game is built on shared principles – the focus, patience and strategy required on the field mirrors the slow brewing process behind the brand.

Further, the brand used the opportunity to exemplify its appreciation of the barley and sorghum farmers who have consistently supplied the raw materials to Kenya Breweries whilst assuring them of continued partnership alongside the aggregators.

Farmers were treated to the Nigeria vs Kenya polo match at Nairobi Polo Club where the teams were seeking to attain the Simon Kuseyo Cup.  It was the first time farmers were part of the guests attending a polo match.

Chris Foot, a barley farmer recognised KBL’s effort to support farmers across the beer-making value chain.
