Tidworth Polo Club

Tidworth Polo Club is one of England's most distinguished military polo clubs, located within the Tidworth Garrison in Wiltshire — home to significant British Army units on Salisbury Plain. The club has a long history of military polo stretching back to the early twentieth century when the British Army was among the world's great polo-playing institutions, and today it continues that tradition as the base for the Combined Services Polo Association's activities. Army teams from regiments across the UK compete at Tidworth throughout the summer season, and the club hosts the prestigious Army Polo Championship alongside open civilian competitions. The Salisbury Plain setting gives the club a distinctive character — surrounded by military land and the ancient landscapes of Wiltshire — while the playing surfaces are maintained to high standards. Tidworth is one of the last bastions of truly traditional British military polo and represents a continuity of sporting tradition stretching back over a century of Army polo.
