Covid Didn’t Dent Enthusiasm

2020 has been a ghastly year in many respects. Lack of social contact, no holidays and restricted to our counties but amongst all the doom and gloom there was Polo. This sport gives so much, fun, friends, exercise and of course the wonderful ponies but this year more than any it gave so much more. With our lives being severely restricted Polo gave us all at least one thing to look forward to.

We may not have been able to play as before and there were no tournaments but at least we could get together for training sessions and private lessons. It kept us all from going insane. There is nothing like flying around on a Polo pony whacking a ball to blow away the doom and gloom.

Another bonus of restricted play was it gave our young ponies and new players space to grow with time and no pressure. We have seen a jump in new members who have found how wonderful this sport is.

God knows what 2021 will bring but at least we have Polo!
