You’re also taken behind the scenes of building the Boston Polo Club, from the mission and challenges to what it takes to run a successful polo club and host polo events.   You’ll see what a polo training session looks like, common beginner mistakes, what surprises new players the most, and the qualities needed to succeed in polo.
