polo ponies club polo  
It's more than just a good ride!

 


First off, this site is a work in progress. Our aim is to reach out to the UVA community and let them know what's going on with UVA polo. Our facebook event has been successful but we realize that there are many people that it does not get to and we're working on that.

ABOUT US
The people, not the horses
WHAT IS VPS?

Who we are: people who love polo and a good time

Why we are doing it: to feed the ponies and support our polo club...and party

Why does it say BDG? B,D,& G are the first letters of our founders' last names. It was a joke (I think) and it's stuck around, but officially we are VPS.

Come out and support us, check out upcoming events!

ABOUT UVA POLO

The Virginia Polo Center in Charlottesville, Virginia provides University of Virginia students, both men and women from all walks of life, with the opportunity to experience the sport of polo.

In keeping with the philosophy of the founders, the program strives to instill in each student the merits of responsibility, hard work, dedication, the rewards of fellowship, working as a team, and the ability to compete in an intercollegiate sport on the national level. These are valuable lessons that endure in the students personal and professional lives after college.

This is a student run organization with members equally sharing responsibility for the athletic success, work ethic, and outstanding reputation of our polo legacy. The Board of Directors are dedicated to providing overall management, professional coaching, and long-term financial support for future generations.

Virginia Polo is not supported by the University of Virginia and relies primarily on outside sources for its financial well being.
