Do you want to play your best?

Team USPA is looking for American players with a passion for polo who are serious about improving their game on every level through training, mentoring, networking and playing opportunities.

"Team USPA has been a wonderful program that has allowed me to travel across the United States, given me numerous polo opportunities, polo training, enhanced my horsemanship, contacts, mentorship and veterinary knowledge and experience. Team USPA has allowed me opportunities that have truly been life changing." -Stephanie Massey, Team USPA 2012, Vetrinary School Graduate

"Team USPA helped me with my first big step to the high goal and every step since then. They made an excellent program to prepare us for the FIP World Cup tournament with an all-Team USPA Team; it has shown us all how to be precise and focused with an objective in mind. Team USPA is really progressing and producing good players and I am proud to be a part of it." -Felipe Viana, Team USPA 2011, 5-goal professional player

"Having the opportunity to train with Team USPA in Florida, Aiken and Sheridan has been incredible. These experiences have shown me a whole new level of polo that has motivated and enabled me to improve my game. I will take what I have learned about playing, horsemanship and professionalism with me wherever I go in polo." -Pierce Alworth, Team USPA 2016, University of Denver
