Since its humble beginnings in 2007, Lexington’s reputation in the bike polo community has been one of hard work, successful tournament presentation, and dedication to maintaining the sport’s integrity and development. As many as 25 polo players populate Lexington’s bike polo courts, which are exclusively maintained by local players with the support of Parks and Recreation. Many polo players from cities around the country also often visit to join in Lexington’s weekly pickup games at Coolavin Park.
Lexington Bike Polo has had several write-ups in local newspapers such as the Herald Leader and North of Center, and bike polo demonstrations can often be seen during downtown Lexington events such as Bike Lexington, Second Sunday, and neighborhood block parties.
