Published on Feb. 26, 2026

Valiente Polo Farm, a 150-acre property in Wellington, Florida that has been the home of the Valiente Polo Team for decades, is now for sale. The farm was established by San Antonio-born polo star Bob Jornayvaz, who suffered a devastating injury two years ago that ended his playing days. The property, which has hosted numerous polo championships over the years, is now being listed by Icon Global as the family looks for the next owners to carry on its legacy.

Why it matters

The sale of Valiente Polo Farm marks the end of an era for one of the most prestigious and successful polo operations in the country. The property has been a hub for elite polo players and competitions, and its next owners will have the opportunity to continue that tradition or potentially redevelop the land for other uses.

The details

Valiente Polo Farm encompasses several buildings, including an 87,000-square-foot polo farm, a maintenance facility, employee/groom's quarters, a viewing pavilion, three polo fields, a stick and ball field, and a warm-up track. The polo barn alone houses 130 stalls and numerous equipment rooms. The property was originally an orange grove but has since hosted six C.V. Whitney Cup champions, two U.S. Open Polo Championships, five USPA Gold Cups, and two World Polo League All-Star Challenges.

  • Valiente Polo Farm was purchased by the Jornayvaz family in 1993.
  • Bob Jornayvaz suffered a devastating injury in 2024 that ended his polo playing career.
