You were on the Sports Kings Street, and you have a sport for equestrian and high society around the world, but the new Polo Academy in Mallorca is going to destroy barriers and change all this. A CAN CAVALL BLAU Vineyard and Organic Farm also had a horse center over the past seven yearsBut this year he included in a new enterprise, opening the first Academy of Polo Islands.
A professional Argentine player, coach and consultant, Leonardo Rossolini and British Polo Instructor and professional referee, Octavia Campbell-Davis, were placed in the Office and Management of the New Academy of Polo, and Leo told Bulletne this week that the reviews are already extreme. He already has a positive for several seven years, learns to play Polo on the estate in Siegella, only an hour of Ana from a palm tree. Leo, who played in Polo over the past 25 years, comes from the family Palo Alto Polo Club in Buenos -Aires, where he leads the dilution program. However, this summer his The goal is to promote polo – sandy polo – on MallorcaField
Around the world
“I was involved as a consultant in helping other clubs to grow around the world from Argentina to the United States and Ireland, and now my attention is focused on the help of expanding the Polo Academy in Polo Blau. This is extremely exciting in the number of reasons. more significant How to play on the grass. We do not need to water the field, since this is an all -weather surface, and with a large climate on the Mallorca, which means that we can work all year round.
“But the most important factor is the philosophy of the Polo Academy. It will be open to the public and Aim at local residents of the island. This is not an elite club, such as the pole, it is not suitable. We want to attract residents to eat and read how to play and progress in order to lead to the drive of their own horses, and, possibly, go to my Palo Alto Polo Club in Argentina to become a professional.
Huge industry
“Polo is the Hage industry in Argentina. We breed the best polo horses in the polo, and we produce the best players, and at least the number with the highest handicap or the goal, as we call it, which is ten.
“There are three levels in the gandicap scheme, low, medical and high. And when I say, I am talking about Polo Formula -1 with serious serious sponsors and a global field field for competition.
“Here our goal is to create players with a low level of handicaps who can go to Argentina to improve their handicap and their sports capabilities,” Leo explained. “In addition, in Polo you can play at any age. We begin children at the age of seven, and I still know how people play the Polo at the highest level at the age of 80.
“While the first generation of Polo horses in Mallorca was from Argentina, the second generation was a major. Yes, a stallion from Argentina, but a new generation is a generation Mallokan horses with Argentinean blood And this is the key part of the lifestyle and experience of Polo, because it is a passion and connection with sports and a horse. Various best Argentine horses are currently cloning from the DNA and ESI qualities, and many of the best clubs do not want to sell.
It’s like a formula -1
“When it comes to the game in Polo, the player has a brain, but horses have legs and heart. Bred to play And they enjoy the surge of adrenaline in the same way, if not more than players. And horses know when to turn on and off. They are wonderful athletes and, for example, they are not as nervous as Arab horses. They know how to relax and communicate with their riders and owners.
“Nevertheless, to be the owner of the Polo Horse for the player is a completely different thinking, and that is why we have a dilution program here, on Mallorca. We provide horses and all equipment for people starting, but ultimately they continue to buy their equipment and a horse.
“Cunning? No, there is no magical word when it comes to training in Polo. Well, well, there are three – practice, practice and practice – and in the ideal world you need to train the scholarship at least three times a week, since you do not become boring and lose interest. On the contrary, you progress, improve and develop a closer connection with your horse, ”I explained.
“So we More Academy than a competitive clubWe also provide a field with a landing and a stable for horses, which we completely care about, and the horses all together roam in the corrals. Horses are very social animals, they like to be together and go out in the open air, and this is how we care about them, and this is how the public when they visit the estate, sees them.
Open for the public
“And the event on Sunday evening from 17:00, depending on the heat, we conduct free exhibition games for the public for the public with additional wines tastings, although people should book a place,” he said.
“Sunday after lunch is a great way to enjoy the lifestyle of Polo as a player or spectator.
“As I said, the Academy, which also serves riding racers, is entertaining, this is fun, we are talking about sowing the seed for young people who are interested in Polo, and those who have aviation to get to the top.
“Therefore, we want to promote our pole for local residents on the island, attract more members and introduce people to the ways of Polo, which can ultimately be sponsors or cartridges, owners of clubs and teams,” Leo said. “We Wednesday coach on average until SundayWe are multilingual and the owner of a series of regular events, ”said Leo.
