Karachi Polo Club

Founded in the 1860s during the height of the British Raj, Karachi Polo Club is Pakistan's oldest active polo club and one of the sport's most historically significant institutions in South Asia. Established by British military officers stationed in Sindh, the club has maintained an unbroken tradition of polo for over 150 years, surviving partition, political upheaval, and economic transformation to remain a vital centre of Pakistani polo culture. The club is closely connected to the Pakistan Army's polo tradition, with military officers constituting a significant portion of its membership and its annual tournaments often incorporating military team competitions. The Karachi Open is one of Pakistan's premier domestic polo events, drawing teams from across Sindh and beyond. The Sindh polo circuit, of which Karachi is the anchor club, represents one of Pakistan's most active polo regions alongside Lahore and the Punjab military circuit.
