Desert Palm Polo Club and Academy

Today is a day to come together and celebrate this incredible country we call home. ❤️💚🤍🖤🇦🇪

We are deeply thankful for the wise leadership of the UAE, for the strength and unity it continues to inspire, and for the UAE Armed Forces and other authorities who work tirelessly to keep us safe. During recent challenging times, the UAE has once again shown itself as a beacon of stability, resilience and peace.

To our team here at Desert Palm, all our riders and members, and the wider community who make Desert Palm the special place that it is, thank you for your solidarity during recent challenging times.

We are proud to stand together under one flag, and proud to call the UAE home. 🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪

In Safe Hands. 💚

During these challenging weather conditions, we’re thinking of our entire Desert Palm community and hope everyone is staying safe.

At Desert Palm, we are fortunate to have an incredible team of grooms who are going above and beyond to look after all our horses — from our polo ponies to the riding school and livery — with genuine care and attention, ensuring and every horse remains happy, healthy, and well.

Please take care, knowing your horses are in very good hands here with us. 💚

Horses First. Always. 💚

While the polo fields have been quiet during this uncertain period, the work behind the scenes at Desert Palm has never stopped.

Our incredible team has continued to care for every horse with the same dedication and attention they show during the height of the polo season — hand walking, exercising, grooming and keeping them happy, healthy and fit.

In times like these, our priority remains exactly where it should be: with the horses and their wellbeing.

We are enormously grateful to our grooms, riders, and ground staff who continue to look after the horses with such professionalism, patience and care during this unsettling time.

We also take this moment to reflect with deep gratitude for the incredible country we live in. We are thankful for the wisdom and guidance of the UAE’s visionary leadership, and for the tireless efforts of the authorities and armed forces who continue to safeguard and protect our community.

Until the fields are busy again, the work continues quietly behind the scenes — caring for the horses that are at the heart of everything we do. 💚

What a weekend of polo here at Desert Palm! 🐎🔥💚

Our much-loved annual Valentine’s Cup saw an incredible 9 teams go head-to-head over two days of thrilling, fast-paced polo. The level of skill on display was outstanding, with players and our amazing horses giving their all in every chukka.

A huge thank you to everyone who came along, competed, or supported from the sidelines. You are what makes Desert Palm one of the most welcoming and friendly polo clubs in Dubai.

Special thanks to our organising committee, our dedicated grounds team, and of course our beloved horses, all of whom came together to create another unforgettable chapter in Desert Palm’s history. 💚💚💚
