My name is Billy Raab, and I’m running for circuit governor of the Southeastern circuit. I have 56 years of involvement in polo, my experience spans playing in the US, UK, Argentina, and the Dominican Republic. I have a broad background as a professional player at the 5-goal level, a professional umpire, currently a circuit governor, and the club manager of the Wagener Polo Club.
I am very interested in helping clubs and low goal players have a much better experience in polo. My focus on enhancing the experience for all groups stems from my extensive background and desire to ensure that all participants, regardless of their level, have the support and resources they need to thrive in the sport.
My candidacy for circuit governor of the US Polo Association is driven by my deep understanding of the sport, my diverse experiences, and my commitment to fostering the growth and development of polo safely and for all to enjoy.
