Based at Fort Bliss in El Paso, Texas, the U.S. Penny Farthing Polo Team brings together riders from across the country for one of the world’s most unique sporting experiences.
Team History
In 2023, Eric Leon Bradley met adventurer Neil Laughton, founder of the Penny Farthing Polo Club in the United Kingdom.
Laughton introduced Bradley to the sport of penny farthing polo, and the two quickly formed a friendship while planning a future British versus American polo match to celebrate the U.S. semiquincentennial.
Following his return to the United States, Bradley began building the American team that would help bring this historic sporting event to life.
