Playing Polo

Hi guys, I know its been a while and I haven't posted much in the past few months. But thats because I've been trying to improve my polo.
I haven't noticed any polo pictures on this our site, so I thought I'd send a few.

Here are random pics, I hope you like them.

Very cool! Love the Bimmers!

I tried playing polo in Pony Club when I was young, but since I'm left handed, it didn't last long!

Polo is very cool and impressive. I tried it a couple of times, just stick-and-ball, and it was extremely challenging but was able to hit the ball pretty well. I'm not a horse person so was just happy to not get thrown and stomped to death. I think I'll stick to hockey; far less dangerous.

Polo is the sport of kings because you need a kings ransom to afford the sport.

Great to see some polo photos on the site! Are you a player or spectator?! These ponies are as tough as they come......

Cheers,

Thanks guys, Poland was actually the host of the FIP Middle European Cup of Nations where I represented Poland:-) Poland got 2nd place because we lost to Austria in the finals! Very emotional! Oh and the tournament was sponsored by BMW which you can see;-) I'm the guy with the number 1 Polish shirt.

Michelle, my team mate is left handed! You need a bit more practice but its do-able. Give it another shot!

I thought I'd sent some pics from the 2010 Vienna Spring Cup. The photgrapher actually caught my fall

Ouch! I hope you didn't suffer anything more than a bruised ego. The photos and the sequence of your fall are amazing shots. I'm a fan of polo, especially the shirts.

I live in a polo playing area since we have a couple of polo clubs nearby. We sometimes take our dog to one of the club fields to run. Its funny to see him check out the horses. I think he thinks they're big dogs.
