Polo in Oregon: All 4 Clubs, and the One I Visited

I’m Amanda Leon, an international amateur polo player, world traveler, and lover of horses. I’ve trained in polo for over 10 years, from Argentina to Sarasota Polo Club, and in 2021 I set out to visit every polo club in America.

The short answer: the U.S. Polo Association’s club directory lists 4 polo clubs and teams in Oregon as of November 2026: Rose City Polo Club in Molalla, south of Portland, Bend Polo Club, La Grande Polo Club, and Oregon State University’s team in Corvallis. Bend plays only in summer.

These notes come from my 2021 and 2022 tour, when I tried to visit every polo club in America as a playing USPA member. Seasons, contacts, and prices change, so check each club’s Instagram or the U.S. Polo Association before you go.
