It is played on a field that is the equivalent of nine American football fields, making it also the largest field in organized sport. A single polo team is made up of four players and about 20 horses. The objective of the game is easier said than done – score goals by knocking a small white solid high-impact plastic ball into the opponent’s goal using a long-handled mallet while riding a horse. When one throws in the complexities of being rammed by opponents, the movements and temperaments of the horse, and the bouncing of the ball itself, (among many other issues faced during the match), polo becomes a rough and hard sport that requires both precision and tactics as well as gladiatorial combativeness. The sport has grown from a long history of ancient and medieval origins, and today modern polo is officially played by seventy-seven countries, including sixteen professionally.
