Polo is fast, exciting, and the place to be for a Summer of meeting, mingling, and family fun.

Handicaps

Players are given a handicap level from -2 to 10 goals depending on their ability, with -2 the lowest, and 10 goal the highest possible. A 10-goaler player is considered the best and there are less than 100 players who have achieved this ranking. Handicaps are evaluated throughout the year and the number assigned in goals is the player’s value to the team, not the number of goals expected from the player.

The ranking of “0” notes that the player holds Amateur status. A team’s handicap is calculated by adding the 4 players’ handicaps together.

Your Guide to Polo

Want to know more about polo? Here is some helpful information on this fabulous sport.

Chukkers

The match is divided into 6 periods called Chukkers, which lasts 7.5 minutes each. After the 3rd chukker, there is the traditional stomping of the divots to replace the grass that the galloping horses’ hooves raise.

The Field

Polo is played on a field that is 300 yards by 160 yards (the size of 10 football fields.)

Polo Ponies

Although they are called polo ponies, they are full-grown horses. Each player typically brings 6-8 polo ponies (or more) to use in a match. Horses are swapped throughout the match to keep the horses and their riders fresh. The top speed of a polo pony is 35 mph, and the speed of a polo ball can reach 100 mph.

Interesting to note, if you look closely at our photos, you will notice that the horses have their manes cut closely, and their tails are braided. This is to prevent the players’ mallets from getting tangled in them during the match.

Player Positions 

Position 1 is the attacking position.
Position 2 is the offensive position. Position 1 and 2 are the “forwards.”
Position 3 is the tactical leader (and usually the best player on the team).
Position 4 plays defense.

Handicaps

Players are given a handicap level from -2 to 10 goals depending on their ability, with -2 the lowest, and 10 goal the highest possible. A 10-goaler player is considered the best and there are less than 100 players who have achieved this ranking. Handicaps are evaluated throughout the year and the number assigned in goals is the player’s value to the team, not the number of goals expected from the player.

The rating of an “A” notes that the player holds Amateur status. A team’s handicap is calculated by adding the 4 players’ handicaps together.

Goals

There are 2 goal posts at each end of the field. When a team scores a goal, the teams switch direction of the play, this keeps the conditions even throughout the match.
