"Female Polo Players of the World" is a group created for all the women who play Polo (with men as well as with other women) and for the people who support female players.

This is a place for us to meet and tell each other about championships and opportunities to play anywhere in the world.

Corporate sponsors and the media are very welcome. You would be surprised by the results a lady's championship can bring to sponsors!

This group is for women who are serious about Polo.
