Camilo Ordoñez el mismo cuenta que era de clase media, solo que al vivir en el campo tuvo mas contacto con el polo que los que vivimos en la ciudad y jugamos basquet o futbol
@@natebrook You guys sure are experts on someone you don't even know. She just has charisma, and you guys are making these massive sexual assumptions about her.🙄
These horses are incredible... Seeing that one mare's lead changes, I was astounded!! Not only are they so smooth and effortless, but the only aid he's using is he reins. That's just insane
I was lucky to own a polo pony. He was intelligent, quick, & brave. I fox hunted him. He didn't know what refusal was. At 27 he passed & buried at our place. He was my world. I've had others, but he was my heart.
Polo will never be very popular in the US. It's probably the least accessible sport in the world simply because you have to be extremely wealthy in order to afford the basics.
It's actually not too bad expense-wise. Or at least not anymore expensive than any other equestrian sport. You just need to have jeans, boots, and a helmet for lessons. So long as you can find a Polo club with lesson horses, you don't have to spend thousands of dollars to play it.
Delta Wickham I agree with that. My point was more about the horses. Unless you're relatively wealthy, or the polo club offers significant discounts or free lessons, the horses (and thus the most important aspect of the sport) will remain well outside the reach of the average person. Polo will remain a sport for the ultra-wealthy.
Definitely recommend trying out polo at a local club, it can be a bit pricey but it's still cheaper than a couple of nights out. Hoping to visit Argentina later this year for a intensive and can't wait!
This is Sagol Kangjei, the origins of modern-day polo. Legend has it that Manipur's deity-king Kangba invented the game in the 14th century BC, and that in 33 AD., deity-king Nongda Pakhangba organised the first polomatch. ... Joseph Sherer, sets up the world's first polo club, the Silchar Kangjei Club
@@user-oo6qk2fj9h How do you know about it. Who told you ? Probably someone told you or you see. Anyone can claim it were it invented. But there should be some proof. Some saying polo has already been played in Persia..OK fine but all of you missed out a very crucial point that it was the British who set up the first modern polo club in British India after discovering the game sagol kangjei in manipur Manipuris didn't claim polo was invented by us but the British had it in their paper meaning we are the legal owner of the modern version which is why every year our hometown imphal is thronged with foreign crowds from Australia England and other commonwealth countries during the annual tournaments where we have our own manipur team vs the rest of world rather than being part of india team Persian theory is not reliable from modernist point of view its like saying aeroplane was born in india when we all know the Wright brothers are the official inventers.. well technically also Persian civilization was already destroyed by Alexander and their game already forgotten long back. It was just a theory not proof.
Riding is all about the ultimate spiritual experience - It’s the separation of your consciousness (or soul, as some would call it) from your physical body. Yes, it's that cool. In fact, there are theories that claim you're already astral projecting when you sleep. Most of us just lose recollection of it when we awake. So the riding is being able to do this while being "conscious" of it. Rissala Polo Club.
I am 13 years old and I am a one-goaler. and I know that polo is not for just the wealthy and I know this because im not rich and some guys on my team aren't either. I hope more people start playing the sport, because more people ware polo than play it!
I think it depends on the area. If you're area is filled with horse ranches, then its definitely more accessible there. But if you're in my area where horses are really really rare, then you should be probably very rich to be even be able to play the sport. It does look cool though, very sad
Greetings to argentina and this champions! This is a traditional Iranian sport. There only historical evidances of this sport is only found in Persia, one evidance in Persia/Iran in bishapour, shiraz there are mountain carvings from Sasanian Persia era (200 A.D) in one scene it representing a polo site, at one side stands the imperial team of "Chogān" stading in lines vs one of his foes teams, which is one of his relatives. its said that the Iranian tribes used to battle eachother with the game of polo or buzkashi, to save their men and safe from casualties. Thats why its called "sport of kings" because it even been played by the kings of Persia to prove their might in the region. This sport came to europe only 200 years ago, while it been playing in Iran and central asia for over 2500 years, and in india for arround 1800-2000 years. Its important to know the history ,its not a british sport, culture of cavalry and horseback arts are one of the brightest Iranian identities ,and represents our culture and our background, polo have't been played in iran since the qajars ruled over Iran, its arround 100 years. But always been know to the people and was visible in the Iranian art and poetry. Its original name is infact "Chogān". Its funny that british came to the region 100 years ago forced most of nomadic people to settle down and, then you suddenly hear that british is playing our national game and representing it as a british game.
That's totally wrong since it has been already discovered in India in the state of manipur name as sagol kanjei after that it as given the name as polo but they don't introduce manipur as the invention of polo 😐
Equine lover here and i'm more then proud and happy to see African Americans participating in a world of prospective sport dubbed for privileged people. It shows that its everyone's world and will to become apart of it in spite obstacles.
Nutella Life Don't sweat it young blood. Keep slanging dat rock or dribbling dat ball. You'll make it. If that don't work out. you could always be a lawn guy at one of these joints. '-'

En el deporte de los Reyes el Rey indiscutible es Argentina. ARGENTINA tiene todos los jugadores con 10 goles de Hándicap, todos los de 9 goles y todos los de 8 goles de Hándicap del mundo.
He leìdo que si naciste en ARGENTINA tenès màs probabilidades de ser jugador de FÙTBOL que de POLO, es una verdad a medias. Logicamente hay màs JUGADORES DE FÙTBOL QUE DE POLO, pero esto es asì en cualquier parte del MUNDO y en relaciòn a cualquier otro DEPORTE, es màs, todos los JUGADORES de POLO JUEGAN AFICIONADAMENTE AL FÙTBOL. Lo que sin dudas ocurre es que si JUGÀS AL POLO PROFESIONALMENTE SEGURO NACISTE EN ARGENTINA, esto es asì porque ARGENTINA ES INVENCIBLE EN EL POLO, en eso ARGENTINA ES ÙNICA y ademàs es un GRAN ORGULLO porque el POLO es el DEPORTE MÀS EXCLUSIVO DEL MUNDO, ES EL DEPORTE DE LOS REYES Y SOLO LOS MULTIMILLONARIOS LO PUEDEN PRACTICAR EN UN BUEN NIVEL.
This is not the sport of kings but the king of sports. It may the sport of the rich in the west, but in Manipur, the home of the Polo game, still any commoner can play.
