Make polo history by competing in the Women's East Coast Open, hosted by New Bridge Polo & Country Club! Originally held as a USPA-sanctioned event, the Women’s East Coast Open has been elevated to national status for 2024 and will make its official debut this fall at the 14- to 18-goal level in Aiken, South Carolina.

Located east of town in the picturesque countryside of rolling hills and southern pines, the 861-acre development provides five world-class polo fields in a private gated-community. In addition to the polo fields, there is a beautiful colonial-style clubhouse with a restaurant, player's bar and outdoor asado area for post-game parties. Stick-and-ball fields, practice areas, and an exercise track make New Bridge the perfect place for tournament action.
