Welcome to UK
Polocrosse

The fast-paced equestrian team sport where one horse takes you all the way. Join the UK's polocrosse community.

What is Polocrosse?

Polocrosse is a fast-paced team sport played on horseback. Combining elements of polo, lacrosse, and netball, it was invented in Australia in the 1930s and has been played in the UK since the 1950s. Each player uses just one horse throughout the game — making it accessible, affordable, and uniquely demanding.
