About the Sarasota Polo Club
Established in 1991 as the first development in Lakewood Ranch, the Sarasota Polo Club has a remarkable legacy. In 1922 our property was settled as a 28,000-acre timber ranch. Originally the cowboys who worked on our ranch began playing knock-around polo games in their free time. Our ranch hands rode their quarter horses with stock saddles using make-shift equipment and knowing very little about polo, the cowboys played by their own rules. Rule #1 was the first rider to fall off their horse bought beer for the team, a tradition that remains in place today. Eventually mallets, saddles and a few polo ponies were donated to the “cowboy games,” and a real polo club was born.
Spanning 130 perfectly manicured acres, our world-class facilities include: 45 private equestrian estates, 7 Bermuda grass polo fields, a regulation-sized polo arena, a half-mile all-weather training track, a stick & ball field, riding trails, on-site stabling for 300 horses, a member’s clubhouse and a midfield polo pavilion.
In addition to polo, our Club’s spectacular grounds and venues are home to a variety of community and social events including concerts, festivals, theater, sporting events, charity fundraisers, corporate meetings and elegant weddings.
Polo is a community sport like no other. Sarasota Polo is one of the largest, most dedicated and enthusiastic polo communities in the United States. We thank you for your continued support and we look forward to welcoming you as our guests to experience the thrill of Sarasota Polo, “the fastest game on f
