Polo is experiencing phenomenal growth - worldwide. Described by Omar Khayyam (the 12th century Persian poet) as the King of Games and the Game of Kings, polo is becoming accessible to more and more people and is enjoyed by young and old, women and men and even entire families. And now, you can learn to play this exhilarating sport - without requiring strings of ponies or being an experienced rider.

We believe that Polo is more a lifestyle than a sport and you’ll feel the difference this ideology makes whenever you drop in at the field.

Polo is for everyone. Come and visit us and find out what it means to embrace the polo lifestyle. We guarantee you will be enchanted. You are welcome anytime to play or join players, residents, international and local guests for a post-chukka drink and chat.

Beginner Polo provides the opportunity for novice and experienced players to come together and enjoy the camaraderie of world’s oldest team sport in a relaxed, fun and above all, safe environment.
