More than 20 years of going to Polo on Saturday night and.. I still don't understand the rule. Barely know what a chukka. For those who have not been invited to taligating at new port polo - a chukka is 7 minute period with 6 chukka per game. Essentially, the rules are right of away to prevent injury to the horses. The most common penalty is "Line of Ball" per the US Polo Org, " an imaginary line created by the ball as it travels down the field. It represents a “Right of Way” for the last player striking the ball, and is the basis for most fouls in the game. Players may try to hook or “ride-off” their opponents in an effort to gain control of the ball."
What I do know about Polo? Great time, lovely evening with glass of red..
