It's fun & challenging and the horses are fantastic athletes. |

| Why Polo? |
Polo is a great game that can be fast or slow, very competitive or just for fun: great flexibility, and enjoyment and you can play year round |
| Why Cedar Valley? |
Only formed a couple of years ago, the membership core of the people is fantastic. The more experienced players are always helpful and teaching as you go, and they can turn it up a notch or two as you get better |
| Favorite Horse? |
Well, your first horse is always your favorite. Mine is Mansell, an 11 years Argentine Thoroughbred Chestnut mare who knows more about the game than I do and has saved my butt on more than one occasion. |
| What do you like better indoor or outdoor and why? |
No real favorite. Indoor is great for learning horse control and getting seat time without exhausting the horses. Great at bonding with your horses too: Makes for a good team. On the other hand, playing outdoor on a large field lets you stretch your legs and pick up speed. Great feeling scoring a goal from 40 yards out |

| Why Polo? |
I had always dreamed of trying polo. It looked to me to be the ultimate fun you could have on horseback. I never imagined I’d ever have the chance to try it. |
| Why Cedar Valley? |
Their members are fun to play with. All of the club chukkas are refereed.

| Favorite Horse? |
I have 2 horses and adore them both. Fancy is a 15 year old TB mare, and Sophia is a 9 year old Argentinean TB mare. |
