The Swiss Polo Association (SPA) is pleased to announce that Stefan A. Locher was elected as President of the SPA as of October 2025.
Stefan A. Locher, a longstanding polo player and member of Largovia Polo, brings great personal passion and experience to the sport. An ophthalmologist with his own practice in Zurich (OKeye.ch), he is an active player himself and was also a founding member of the former Legacy Polo Club (now Largovia Polo), where he worked to promote the development and broader establishment of polo in Switzerland.
Under his leadership, the SPA will continue its mission of representing the interests of all Swiss polo clubs, coordinating the national team and international participation, as well as overseeing tournament regulations and player handicaps.
Stefan A. Locher emphasises the value of the collective strength of Switzerland’s polo community and the importance of increasing visibility, respect for the sport’s heritage and enabling broader access to competitive and social polo.
The SPA welcomes his presidency and looks forward to a future of continuity, collaboration and renewed energy across Swiss polo clubs and events.
