Polo Summer School
In July, we work with Lucton School to deliver a polo summer school that is suitable for all abilities.
Our highly qualified HPA instructors and licensed polo ponies move into the schools impressive set up and cover practical and theory lessons based around the world of polo to UK and international students.
Accommodation, meals and after school activities are organised by Lucton staff who are also on site to support and supervise where required.

Rules & Tactics
Our tactics board is used to demonstrate the rules and tactics. During these lessons, students can cover safe play from the ground. They will also analyse polo matches in the classroom.
Stable Management
Students help our team care for the polo ponies. During their time with us they will learn the importance of tack and equipment, how to reduce injuries, fitness and training and the feeds that they require.
Chukkas
Instructional chukkas are played daily in preparation of the tournament on the last day. All training is set at a comfortable speed, depending on the rider's ability.
Swing Instruction
Swing instruction is given daily, using the wooden horse or short mallets.
Polo Riding
We make the most of the beautiful surroundings by hacking out the polo ponies and increasing the students riding skills.
Tournament
To finish a fun week off with the students we do a tournament against each other in front of the school and their parents. Prizes are awarded to the winners.
