I love how Marcos is organizing the practices now, separating the low goal players and the higher goal players. The high goal team is up to 12 – that is pretty darn fast. It is not actually high goal, considering the highest goal polo in the world is 40! Only in Argentina. It is my dream to watch a 40 goal match – the highest goal polo I have seen is 26 – in the US Polo Open. We also have an umpire, which means we get to line up in the middle of the field for the throw-in. I love it so much!
