Hertfordshire Polo Club at Woolmers Park near Letty Green runs an Introduction to Polo experience designed for absolute beginners. The two-hour session under Head Coach Martin State and his team covers the four basic strokes (using the wooden horse and polo boxes), riding for polo on a quiet schooling pony, the rules of the game, and a first stick-and-ball mini chukka. Coach, pony, hat and mallet are provided.
The club has thirty school ponies and runs lessons all year round including weekends. Suitable as a single experience day or as the start of a competitive route through Instructional Chukkas to club polo. Gift vouchers available.
