Stamp divots, bring a picnic, enjoy the beauty of the outdoors, and watch the action matching talented athletes and animals from around the country – both horse and rider making the fast-paced game entertaining from start to finish.
The base of the Bighorns has been hosting chukkers since the 1890s, when a pair of Scottish brothers set up a pony breeding operation, a polo field and introduced the game of polo to their cowhands. The tradition lives on, drawing notable players from all over the world for the entire summer season.
Two clubs, The Big Horn Polo Club and the Flying H Polo Club, and nine playing fields ensure that polo is played throughout the entire summer:
Flying H Polo
Welcome to the 2023 Polo Season
2023 is Flying H’s 19th season, and once again each week throughout the 8-week season, from July 6th thru August 26th, begins a new tournament.
Teams will be reconfigured each week to give members a chance to play with as many different people as possible. This week to week changing of teams helps to keep the spirit of the polo friendly, however very competitive.
As always, Flying H Polo Club (FHPC) will work hand-in-hand with our next door neighbor, Big Horn Polo Club. BHPC is one of the oldest active clubs in the U.S. Many FHPC players play their young horses at BHPC which strengthens the polo there. A few FHPC members take advantage of BHPC as a place to play with and coach their children.
The Big Horn area has long been a polo pony training area. Horses from nearby ranches have found their way around the world to compete in the best polo for over a 100 years.
