Polo Pony Donations Fuel Student Polo

Give a Pony. Grow the Next Generation of Polo.

As Virginia Polo continues to welcome new players of all skill levels, our need for polo ponies continues to grow.

Every pony in our string was generously donated by supporters like you. By donating a polo pony, you can make a lasting impact on young players, giving student athletes the opportunity to learn, develop their skills, and compete at the collegiate level.

We welcome ponies suited for all stages of player development, from beginner to advanced.

Polo pony donations are in-kind tax deductible gifts through the University of Virginia Alumni Association.

Please contact us if you are interested in learning more, Jenny Germroth jenny@vapolo.org or Parker Pearce ppearce@vapolo.org.

Why choose Virginia Polo?

Virginia Polo ponies receive daily turnout, regular veterinary care, are managed by our professional coaching staff, and receive planned time off between season. The Virginia Polo program has the stability of owning our facility, more than 70 years of operation, and a governing Board of Directors including an equine veterinarian. When the time for retirement is reached care is given to seek suitable homes for turnout or less strenuous riding careers.
