    Saddle up and get to grips with the fun, challenging and sometimes unpredictable game of polo. You'll begin with a briefing on the fundamental rules and theory of the sport by expert polo instructors. You'll then have a chance to practice aspects of the game such as polo riding, ball hitting, hooking and riding off, all of which will be explained on the day. You'll then mount a mechanical horse to master basic swings before jumping on a pony to take part in a 'stick and ball' session. After your training you will change into official polo gear and mount your horse to put your newfound skills to the test as you both play an instructional chukka. You are welcome to stay for the remainder of the day and watch full matches being played.

    • Expert instruction with plenty of time to practise your technique
    • Try out basic techniques on a mechanical horse, then improve your skills on a real one!
    • Put your new skills into practice playing in some instructional chukkas
    • Lunch is included
