Saturday, July
21 polo clinic
Oahu's Waimanalo Polo Field
Pony club participants visited the field and tried
hitting the ball while riding club member polo ponies
 Our hitting horse, which the kids nicknamed "Speedy", gave everyone a chance to practice shots |
 All the kids had great form and hit the ball really well for their first try |
Club members Santiago and Michelle teach hitting
basics
Pony club gets a lesson in tacking
a polo horse. They learned the purpose and safety features
of each tack component used to protect horse and rider.
Wednesday, July 11, first
polo clinic at Maunawili Farm
We discussed polo basics, practiced hitting from a hitting horse, and hit
with foot mallets. Lots of fun and big smiles all around. Future recruits for
college polo teams!
 Turn out was great - about 25 girls and boys full of enthusiasm .. |
