Great day potentially for all the family. Experience tailored to all riding capabilities. A step by step guide to polo. Great horses, tuition and setting. Would definitely recommend.

If you are looking for a relaxed and above all fun place to learn to play polo JF polo academy is great. I have been playing here for the last three years and have loved every minute of it.

The day started with pairing you up with your horse for the day - James matched the horses to the riders perfectly - we had a wide range of abilities from event riders to those who enjoy a nice quiet hack.

James is very... More

James is amazing! My Daughter went to him at 9 to try Polo for weekly lessons, as she wanted to try something different. James was patient, and encouraging.

James is a brilliant polo coach and his field is banging. He is a key man to have on any university polo trip. He has fantastic horses that are great for playing on. I imagine that the bar in his new club house will be nothing short of brilliance.
