Edinburgh Polo Club is the capital's principal polo venue, operating from Currie on the western edge of the city with HPA (Hurlingham Polo Association) accreditation. The club has both grass pitches and an all-weather surface, allowing play across a longer season than purely grass-dependent venues. Beginner tuition is available for those new to polo, and the club runs a structured programme through the playing season including chukkas, practice days and competitive fixtures. Members come from across the Lothians and beyond, and the club has an established junior section for younger players. Set up in 1973, the club is based within the grounds of The Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club in Currie, Midlothian, a short drive from the city centre, and run by HPA coach James Douglas. It is home to both the Edinburgh University Polo Club and the Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies polo team, with ponies trained in-house, including ex-racehorses given a second career. The club runs a 3-goal arena and 2-goal grass handicap, hosts hen parties and work outings, and offers livery facilities.
