The Museum of Polo and Hall of Fame is a 501(c)(3), non-profit organization to celebrate the sport of polo.[1][2][3][4][5]

Overview

It was founded by four polo players, H. Jeremy Chisholm, Philip L. B. Iglehart, Leverett S. Miller, and George C. Sherman, Jr. in Lexington, Kentucky in 1988.[1][2][3][4] The first inductions into the hall of fame were in 1990.[5][6] In 1997, it was relocated to a ten-acre estate in Lake Worth, Florida.[2][3][4][7]

The museum includes a trophy by Paul Storr and paintings by Franklin Brooke Voss, George Derville Rowlandson and Paul Brown.[1]
