OTB™ Podcast Season #2: Dawn Jones

Описание: On this Episode of Outside The Boards Podcast, I am really excited to introduce player, patron and co-founder of the Women In Polo Network, Mrs. Dawn Jones.

Dawn Jones is one of the most active women in American polo, both on and off the field. Some may know her as the wife of actor Tommy Lee Jones. However, she has grown into a well-known figure and power within America and women’s polo in her own right.

Dawn is a professional photographer by trade, and WIPN’s connector and fundraiser extraordinaire. With a 1 goal mixed and 6 goal women’s handicaps, her home base is the San Saba Polo Club, in San Saba, Texas. You will find Dawn supporting women’s polo and playing in tournaments around the globe.

Dawn has made it her mission to create opportunities for women to play polo through the Women in Polo Network, which she co-founded with Pamela Flanagan. A guest you might recognized from Season #1. Dawn mentors young players and advocates for women to compete at the highest level in polo.

Dawn is incredibly bright and one of most motivated and ambitious leaders in the sport. She has become a great friend and we share some the same interest and ideas surrounding this beautiful game. Dawn continues to do great things for the game and women’s polo as she continues to advocat and mentor many people. I am happy to commit my time to her efforts.
