Polo Pitch

"Awfully nice day for a spot of Polo, Shapur!"

Although its exact origins are now lost, Polo was one of the dominant sports of antiquity in the east. Popular in Arabic, Byzantine, Persian and Chinese cultures, it was seen as a means to practice and demonstrate horsemanship and many battle skills amongst those wealthy enough to own horses. A game only needed a flat field, but over time permanent pitches gradually appeared on which teams could train and play. Little is known about Polo’s early rules, scoring points by taking the ball from one end of the field to the other may have been the only one. This fits with the game's association with battle; riders may well have been allowed to strike or unhorse their opponents without penalty.
