On this Episode of Outside The Boards, we are thrilled to welcome the Stalwart of American Polo, the legendary Adam Snow, who stands as one of the most esteemed American polo players in the sport's history. With a career that spans over three decades, Snow's passion for polo has not waned; at nearly 60 years of age, he continues to make significant contributions to the game.
Commencing his professional playing journey in 1988, Snow has evolved into a seasoned player with an impressive track record. His prowess on the polo field extends beyond his skillful play to encompass a profound knowledge of horses. As a testament to his deep connection with these majestic animals, Snow, alongside his wife Shelly, operates his own breeding operation, emphasizing his commitment to nurturing and developing top-notch polo horses.
One of the pivotal moments in Snow's illustrious career came in 2002 when he clinched his first U.S. Open Polo Championship®. This victory marked a defining achievement in a tournament featuring 15 teams at the formidable 26-goal level.
Reflecting on his career highlights, Snow also fondly recalls playing in Argentina, notably at Palermo in 1999. His experience, representing Hurlingham was nothing short of a dream. Additionally, the joy of playing alongside his brother Andrew during their inaugural high-goal season at Palm Beach in 1991 holds a special place in Snow's heart.
Snow continues to express his ongoing enthusiasm for the sport, sharing insights into his current focus on 6, 8, or 12-goal polo. Undeterred by the changing landscape of the game, Snow remains dedicated to the competitive spirit, fueled by a passion for playing with exceptional horses.
Beyond the polo field, Snow's commitment to the sport manifests in his literary endeavors. With the book "Polo Life: Horses, Sport, 10 and Zen," and now “Winning with Horses” co-written with his wife Shelly Onderdonk. Adam Snow's journey in polo reflects not only a remarkable athletic career but also a profound connection to the essence of the sport and a commitment to its continual evolution.
