Polo working holiday
For students, people on a tight budget or those who like to work with horses we have the polo working holiday. The idea is that you can play polo for a fraction of the normal price, because in return you do part of the work that we normally do for you.
The working holiday can be done throughout the whole year, but 3 times a year we have two very special cheap working holiday weeks. This is during the european/us easter and summer holidays and end of year vacations.
The standard working holiday is polo 6 days a week, in the morning and afternoons. You get a designated set of horses to take care of, which you can use to stick & ball and play. You have to groom, feed and mount your own horses. Accommodation and food & drinks are included and shared with other working holiday guests.
The special promo weekly program is polo in the afternoons from monday to friday. This can be stick & ball, chukkers or polo lessons. Accommodation is included and shared with other working holiday guests. There are 2 or 3 beds per room and shared bathrooms. Food and drinks are also included (no alcohol). In the mornings you have to help us three hours per day for the typical tasks of a polo club; grooming or moving the horses, cleaning stables, cutting the grass, painting the barn, etc..
Weekends are free. You can visit Buenos Aires or stay at the club. The club has a bar with pool and ping pong tables and there is a small supermarket.

Polo lesson
If you donīt have time to spend a week at our polo school, you can go for the polo lesson. A typical polo lesson takes about one hour. First we go through the
basics and then itīs more focused on improving your game. The instructor looks at your level and gives you hands on advise. The lessons are for beginners as well as for more
advanced players.
Contact us for this seasons prices and availability.
Free stick & ball
If you already know how to play and donīt want a lesson or join a few chukkers, there is always stick & ball. You can rent as much horses as you like. The average is 2 horses, but if you want more, or less that is possible.
