The Introduction to Polo experience runs on most weekends throughout the year. The two hour lesson takes you through all basic components of the game to give you an understanding of the sport. You will spend time learning the rules and tactics by watching a demonstration by your instructor using a board with miniature pieces. You will then stand on an elevated platform with a shortened polo mallet and be taught the polo swing and the four basic shots. Then get onto your horse and learn how to ride a polo pony. Finally, put it all together by doing some stick and ball, (riding your horse and hitting a ball in solo practice.) Following the Introductory lesson you are able to play a mini game of polo – in an ‘Instructional chukka’ - where you can enjoy playing competitive polo and enlarge upon what you’ve already learnt.
