A very warm welcome to the Thai Polo & Equestrian Club Website! Thailand and her people are well known for their friendly smiles and their genuine hospitality coupled with an exceptional fondness to provide charming and exquisite service. Our aim at Thai Polo and Equestrian Club, only one hour away from the Bangkok International Airport, is to provide you as our guests with joyful, exciting unforgettable experiences at our facilities in a sporting, unassuming context with natural surroundings of 600 acres or 250 ha of Thai countryside overlooking the Gulf of Thailand, adjacent to rolling protected hills, most suitable for endurance, eventing, trailriding and, of course, polo. Our two full size and one practice fields have been built in keeping with the kind advice from the legendary Jim Gilmore of Ellerston, Australia and Alejandro Lavista Llanos, one of Argentina’s best field designers. respectively. Here the ball keeps on rolling and thanks to the two gentlemen’s unparalleled expertise our fields have become two of the best in the region. We pay polo from low goal up to fourteen goal at the annual Thai Polo Open in January and cater as well to junior plays with our small Thai ponies. Our architecture is in keeping with Thai traditions and our horses enjoy the opportunity to graze on our many paddocks during the cooler times of the day. We offer carefree polo for our players as we provide stabling, shoeing, veterinarian care, training and gear cleaning services for everyone. All you need to do is pay the bill and come to play. Our most recent achievement is the coming opening of the Rege Ludwig International Polo School, as Rege, one of the world’s most respected polo instructors, has decided to spend our whole season from November to April in Asia to help develop polo in this region. He will have his base in Thailand and everyone is welcome to come and learn with him either on their own or rented ponies. Finally I would like to mention that we have a well balanced polo calendar with exciting tournaments and friendly club chukkers as well as a good number of eventing and endurance competitions during the summer and winter season with national teams and international clubs and players resp. riders coming to compete in all disciplines of equestrian sports we cater to from various parts of the world. We endeavour to cater to all members of a family, young and older, ladies and men. Pataya, as everyone, who comes here, discovers, is so much better than its reputation and offers first class hotels at private or deserted beaches (or crowded, if that is preferred), delicious seafood, wonderful sailing, boat excursions to protected islands, a wide array of international standard golf courses and of course ample opportunities of entertainment and shopping; So please come to visit us soon ! Yours truly Harald Link Thai Polo & Equestrian Club
