In a small paddock, groups mount their steeds to learn the rules of polo and how to hit the ball from atop a horse. No experience is necessary, and students get to participate in a scrimmage at the end of the lesson. Helmets are provided, although customers may bring their own if they wish. 

At the head of Stage Hill Polo, owner and instructor Peter Poor -who has been featured in the Boston Globe- draws on more than 50 years of polo experience to teach the game to students of all skill levels. After guiding students to their provided horses and mallets, Poor teaches his stuendets all about polo strageies and the game's terms and phrases, such as "chukkers,", "bumps" and "that's a football". He holds lessons in a small paddock so that riders can learn the sport in a low-intesity atmosphere. Poor welcomes all skill levels and oversees friendly scrimmages during which students can put their newly acquired skills to the test. 

Winner receives (2) separate one-hour polo lessons, as part of a group. This enables him/her to participate in an actual scrimmage.
