ABOUT US
Our Club
For over 30 years The Villages Polo Club has provided an unforgettable polo experience for thousands of spectators and hundreds of polo players from around the world. Located in the heart of Florida’s Friendliest Hometown®, one hour north of Orlando and thirty minutes south of Ocala. Our 250 acre polo facility offers you a chance to experience the amazing world of polo.
The Villages Polo Club offers first-class facilities and the largest crowds in the U.S., with over 30,000 spectators each year. Our competitive, 6-12 goal public polo season runs late January through early May. Season passholders enjoy opportunities to experience polo up close and unhurried with access to exclusive fall matches. The Villages Polo Club’s two level stadium resides on an elevated berm, giving you breathtaking views from any seat.

“The announcer upstairs explains the games as you go along. So that helps a lot but It’s just great. Everyone is going to have such a good time. How could you not have a good time. Just one of the advantages from living here in the Villages.”

“It’s fun. It’s just a fun time. It’s exciting. You don’t realize how fast the horses are running. I mean, you can stomp the divots, like, you know, pretty woman… we just have a fun time with our friends. So it’s great!”
Daniel Miller-Grossman
“This is my first time at a polo game, but I am loving it. I’m having a really good time. I’m here with my aunt, and it’s just been awesome to learn about polo and, see the horses in action. It’s been a really good time.”
