Fred W. Dailey

The ultimate goodwill ambassador, Fred Dailey required no prodding as he represented, with charm and dignity, the best of American polo. A gentle man in a rough-and-tumble sport, he played with zeal on the field, and gave and gave off the field. No effort was too great.

His most prominent contribution was the revival of polo in Hawaii, with which he was synonymous. His legacy, however, knows no boundaries. Through his manner and actions, he was an inspiration to clubs and players everywhere.

As guardian of the sport, as a selfless worker for the USPA, as a club owner, as an exemplary amateur and as a friend, he earned a place of honor in the annals of polo.
