After years of horse showing, Kylie took her first polo lesson in 7th grade at Garrison Forest where she attended school and competed throughout her youth. A member of Team USPA since 2013, Kylie began initially teaching friends and classmates where she played collegiately for University of Virginia, bringing home 2 National Championships and was a 4-time National Intercollegiate All-Star. Currently, Kylie runs Flying Cow Polo Club in Wellington, Florida in the winter, spends spring and fall in Aiken, and travels throughout the U.S. in the summer season. Kylie teaches, trains green horses, and offers rental strings in both Wellington and Aiken. In addition to her business, Kylie has participated on several NYTS selection committees as well as representing the U.S. internationally in Nigeria, Malaysia, Argentina and Ireland.

What has been one of your favorite teaching memories?

“It is always so rewarding to see my students not only improve their polo but also their horsemanship and complete understanding of the game. Also, at the beginning of my teaching career, getting to help introduce some of the students at the Middle Grades Partnership to horses and polo. This is a program at Garrison Forest that provides summer support to academically promising middle school youth from Baltimore City. It was an inspiration to see the program eventually offer polo as a part of the curriculum, pioneered by Cindy Halle.”
