What Is Bike Polo?
Bike polo is a sport for everyone. What began in 1999 as a way for Seattle bike messengers to kill time between runs has flourished into an international sport. Today you can see a sport with a national organizational board, international clubs and competitions around the world, an international women's tournament and increasing exposure to the mainstream.

New Players
New players are always welcome! We recommend that you bring a helmet, gloves, pads, and whatever other safety gear you feel like you need. More than likely you'll get a little bruised up your first couple of times playing.
When you're just getting started, most any bike will do. However, the club does have a few polo-specific bikes on hand that are available for new players to borrow. If interested, message us to find out how to get ahold of one.
