Asimismo, se entregarán dos premios especiales: al drive más largo, en las secciones masculina y femenina, y a la bola que se haya quedado más cerca de la bandera.

Recreational activities, gastronomy, and live music
Hyde and Mondrian Ibiza strengthen their commitment to the Ibizan community once again by joining this tournament in support of the Ibiza and Formentera Association Against Cancer, IFCC. As part of this collaboration, both hotels will provide the official tournament meal during the awards ceremony, thus contributing directly to an initiative that has become an essential event in the island’s solidarity calendar.
Coinciding with the launch of Hyde Ibiza Fest, the new four-day cultural event that will take place from May 7 to 11, 2026, this collaboration underscores both hotels’ vocation to generate a positive impact in their environment. “For the first time, Hyde Ibiza presents a program of activities that celebrates music, culture, art, wellness, and sports by taking advantage of the resort’s spaciousness and its various locations by the sea and in the heart of nature in Cala Llonga,” the hotel explains. Participation in this charitable tournament complements this spirit and solidifies Hyde and Mondrian Ibiza as cultural and social engines within the local community.
The president of the Ibiza and Formentera Association Against Cancer, IFCC, Elizabeth Gail Fear, expresses her excitement to celebrate this tournament for the fifth consecutive year, “it is one of the most anticipated events by our association as sports is one of the key pillars in the prevention work we carry out at IFCC.” Fear also assures that “we are very grateful for the support we receive from all the companies and institutions in the Pitiusas that collaborate with us year after year and, especially, for being able to count on Mondrian Ibiza by our side, who always lend us a hand when we need it.”
Additionally, this fifth edition of the tournament will feature a live performance by the band Reflection, which will entertain this sports day with the best rock music of recent times, while Island Casino Events will incorporate a leisure proposal inspired by the atmosphere of a casino to offer an additional attraction to attendees. Likewise, the foodtruck Choco Party will be present at this gathering, offering a small break for players during the tournament.
Ibiza and Formentera Association Against Cancer
The Ibiza and Formentera Association Against Cancer, IFCC, has been working for 25 years to help patients and families in the Pitiusas during their cancer treatments, as well as providing medical supplies, brochures, or funding for transfers and treatments outside the islands.
This year, IFCC, in collaboration with the Santa Eulària des Riu City Council, has launched a pilot project called Hospice, a companionship service aimed at people with cancer in the final phase of their lives and their families, which is offered free of charge to oncological patients in the municipality with a life expectancy of less than twelve months.
In 2025, the Association funded a new car for the Palliative Care Unit, as well as 46 new armchairs and new side tables for the waiting room of the oncology day hospital and the radiology room. Additionally, IFCC continues to promote a new campaign among the island’s society to strengthen the promotion of colon cancer detection, with the aim of improving the participation rate, which was only 28% in 2024.
In recent years, the Ibiza and Formentera Association Against Cancer, IFCC, has donated reclining chairs for oncology patients at Can Misses Hospital, as well as televisions and headphones for the chemotherapy room of this reference center in Ibiza and Formentera.
IFCC has also financed, thanks to donations from its numerous members and the charitable events it organizes, the decoration of both the oncology nursing consultation and the Palliative Care Unit consultation, the acquisition of an endoscope for Formentera Hospital, the implementation of a colon cancer and lymphedema screening project in the Pitiusas, and several vehicles for the Palliative Care Unit.
