Polder Cup is a sports and arts event organized by Maider López, the Spanish artist who breaks traditional behavioural patterns with her interventions in the public space. With Polder Cup, she combined the Dutch love for football, water and consensus culture. In a Dutch polder, López painted football pitches on the surrounding pastureland. Ditches cut right across the pitches, forcing the players of the sixteen teams to come up with new tactics.
