WEEK 10 • Polo PPT: history, players and positions, rules, popularity. • Watching videos related to the topic • Comparisons • Writing practice
POLO • Polo is a dynamic and exciting team game that is played on horseback. • It is one of the oldest known sports in the world thought to have originated in Persia over 2000 years ago. • The game as we know it today originates in India in the 1800s, where British soldiers who were stationed there saw the game being played locally and adapted it for their own uses, often using it as training for cavalry riders.
POLO • The object of Polo is for a team to score more points than its opposition, thus winning the game. • Each team attempts to move the ball into the opposition's half of the pitch with the aim of eventually hitting it through the goal to score.
POLO • Each team of four is made up of attackers and defenders, but realistically all members of a polo team are expected to be flexible and make any play whether offensive or defensive and change position as necessary to benefit the team.
POLO • Scoring is simple in Polo, and a point (known as a goal) is scored when the ball is hit into the goal. • Unlike many other games that change halves at set periods such as halftime, in Polo, teams change field direction every time a goal is scored.
SOME RULES OF POLO • Polo is played on a Polo field that is 300 yards long and 200 yards wide, although this may be just 160 yards wide if it is a boarded pitch. • The goalposts have a width of 8 yards and are open at the top.
SOME RULES OF POLO • Each Polo match shall consist of 4 chukkas (plays), each one lasting 7 minutes of actual play. • The game shall start when the umpire throws the ball in between the two teams. This is how play is restarted after a goal is scored too.
