Harvard University

 The Harvard Polo Club builds on a tradition of polo at our University dating back to the early 20th century. The team, reestablished in 2006, currently has 18 members and practices regularly in Hamilton, Massachusetts.  During our fall and spring seasons, we compete in matches against Yale, the University of Virginia, the University of Connecticut, Cornell, the University of Massachusetts, and Skidmore, among others. 

We are coached by an experienced, polo-playing husband-wife team of Crocker Snow Jr. (Harvard '61), and Cissie Snow, formerly a top woman player who ran the Polo Training Foundation's Brushy Creek training facility in Texas for seven years before moving to the Boston area. 

Harvard Polo is very competitive.  In the spring of 2009, we qualified for the Men's and Women's regional intercollegiate tournament at Cornell.  Also in 2009 (and now, 2010), the Men's team traveled to the UK in June for an exhibition game with Oxford, Cambridge and Yale at the Guard's Polo Club outside of London. 

We are supported by generous alumni and donors, our most generous being Tommy Lee Jones (Harvard '69), an avid polo player who invites the team to his San Saba ranch in Texas for pre-season training in addition to donating polo ponies and equipment.  We are deeply grateful for all of the support we receive, especially as we aim to make Harvard Polo a sustainable, central, and permanent fixture on the Harvard campus for generations of undergraduates.
