Chris Dawson, one of the biggest promoters of polo at the moment, spoke with Click Polo about everything: his brand’s growth, his projects for the future, and the presence of polo in the US.

Every event that we produce is dedicated to revitalizing Hawaii's ancient traditions that were revitalized during Hawaii's renaissance era under the reign of King David Kalakaua.  

When Hawaii was a kingdom and Queens and Princesses rode horseback to balls, they’d wrap themselves up in gorgeous, long, and colorful skirts called Pa’u (pronounced pah-oo). 

Polo was first played in Hawaii before it was played anywhere else in the United States under the reign of King David Kalakaua. The first documented match occurred on a field in Palama in 1880 between British Naval Officers and local residents.
