Bramham Polo Academy is a friendly, progressive polo club delivering lessons, instructional chukkas, corporate days, and tournaments for all ages and abilities near Wetherby. The academy is coached by Fran Stuven Ortelli, an HPA-qualified Argentinian professional, with a particular pride in the fact that nearly half of those it teaches have never ridden before, yet are playing a mini chukka within a single session. The academy operates year-round across two venues: the summer outdoor season runs at Toulston near Tadcaster, while a winter indoor arena programme runs at Ribston Hall in Little Ribston. This dual-venue model keeps lessons available throughout the year. Private lessons, group sessions, polo experience days, and corporate hosting are all available.
