Review:
'It's jam-packed with information, all clearly laid out and illustrated with photographs' ... 'it's fantastic for someone like me who's had a couple of lessons and wants to progress. The section on horsemanship is particularly useful, with clear instructions on everything from where your weight should be to how to play each shot' ... ' This is a great book for anyone interested in taking up polo or learning more about it - now I just need to work out a way of balancing it on my pony's withers while I learn the swings!' Horse and Countryside 'This is a useful, well-illustrated introduction to this fast-paced team sport.' NFU Countryside 'You're certain to be a sure shot with a mallet after reading her expert advice!' ... 'It's a great introduction to the exciting and fast-paced game, and will inspire anyone to have a go.' Horse
