Royal Malaysian Polo Association Club

The Royal Malaysian Polo Association Club (RMPA Club) is the home ground of polo governance in Malaysia and the centrepiece of the country's national polo circuit. Established under the patronage of Malaysia's royal families — whose connection to polo dates to the colonial era — the club serves as both the administrative headquarters of Malaysian polo and the primary competitive venue for the national circuit's most prestigious events. Malaysia's royal polo tradition is among the most distinctive in Asian polo: the country's hereditary rulers have historically been among the sport's most committed patrons, and the RMPA's royal patronage provides the club with a ceremonial and social prestige that distinguishes it from the country's other polo venues. Royal participation in the sport at the RMPA Club has given Malaysian polo a visibility and social status that supports the sport's continued development in a country where equestrian sports face significant infrastructure and cultural challenges. The club hosts the key events of the Malaysian polo calendar, attracting the country's best players and occasional international guests from Singapore, Thailand, and other Asian polo nations. Its role as the national circuit hub ensures that the RMPA Club is at the centre of Malaysian polo's developmental agenda, including junior player development, national team selection, and coordination with the Asian Polo Federation and the FIP on international matters affecting Malaysian polo.
