Biography
Brooke Henderson is Canada's leading women's polo player and the most prominent female voice in a sport that has struggled for visibility in a country where ice hockey and lacrosse dominate the equestrian sporting imagination. Her achievements at the top of the Canadian women's circuit have made her a pioneer for the sport in the country. Competing out of clubs in Ontario and British Columbia, Henderson developed a technically refined playing style that has enabled her to compete not only domestically but in North American women's circuits that bring together players from the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Her handicap reflects sustained competitive engagement across multiple seasons. Henderson has been an advocate for expanding women's polo in Canada, working with the Canadian Polo Association to develop structured pathways for female players that extend from junior levels through to the national circuit. Her visibility as a top-ranked player has helped attract younger women to the sport. Her career represents the potential of Canadian women's polo at a moment when the sport globally is investing heavily in its women's game. Henderson's example shows that world-class women's polo can and should be developed in Canada, and her advocacy work gives the sport a credible and passionate champion in a country where equestrian sports deserve greater recognition.
