Live polo
Be a polo player for a day: a pro match, an asado and your first chukker.
Countryside, horses and asado. Ideal for groups, families and companies.
Become a player
You start playing in weeks; in a year, you compete and play around the world.
Enter, play and compete in a women’s environment.
Practices, tournaments and club life all year round.
Horses
Experience · Full day
A full day to live polo from the inside: a talk on the game and the horses, a professional match live, an Argentine asado, and your own lesson to finish playing your first mini-chukker. You leave having played polo. No experience or riding skills required.
Experience · Groups & families
The more relaxed, social version: open countryside, horses, an introduction to polo and an asado done properly. You take home a different kind of day, without the intensity of a full session. Ideal for groups, families and companies.
The day includes
Los Carditos · Your path into polo
You don’t wait a year to play: within a few weeks you’re already striking the ball and playing your first chukkers. The 52-week path is what takes you further — from your first lessons to competing in tournaments and, with your handicap, playing at any club in the world. No rushing: first you master the horse, then the hit, then the game.
“A polo handicap is a passport to the world.” Winston Churchill
Led by Alejandro Guzmán de San Félix, the club’s Polo Manager.
You ride confidently and strike the ball.
You gallop freely and read the play.
You hit on both sides, at the gallop.
You understand the line, right of way and your position.
You play as a team and contest your first internal tournament.
You compete seriously and manage your own string of ponies.
Las Carderas · Women’s polo
Good women’s polo is rare to find. Las Carderas is our women’s team: the place to enter, play and truly compete, in an environment of their own and at the level women’s polo deserves.
