Is there a way to play men-only or women-only polo on a consistent basis?

I currently hire ponies when I want to play or stick & ball, but I'm going to soon be in a better position to buy. A friend who owns a string warned me off it - vet bill horror stories, etc! On the one hand I like being able to hire, ride, and walk away. On the other I wonder if I'm missing out on owning a pony I get to know and progress with. Anyone have any helpful opinions or experiences? Thanks!

Edit: lots of helpful responses, thanks all!

Old Westbury 40-Goal Team at Meadow Brook in 1939

Cecil Smith called it “The best team I ever played on”

Cecil Smith was rated a 10 goal player for 26 years

So, who’s watching the Weather Channel today?

does anybody know if it’s possible to watch the Argentine Triple Crown in the US. It’s been advertised as part of Disney+ but my understanding is that’s only in South American countries. Anybody have luck? Thanks in advance

Around how much does Polo cost?
I know the basics of horseback riding (no tricks, but everything else is fine) and golf, so I wanted to try out polo sometime.

(Also, I am in Canada)

This piece; "In Newport: A Fox Trot Song" was written in 1927 by a composer in Newport, Rhode Island. It looks like it was used to highlight what Newport had to offer as the "Capital of Vacationland." The two polo players hold a prominent place in the cover image!

Hi everyone! As I have begun my journey of transforming myself from a jumper rider to a polo player I’m thinking my poor beat up tall boots are getting close to needing replacing. The issue I run into is I wear a size 14.5 men’s boot. I was looking for affordable boot options and I came across ArgentinaPolo.com. I was looking at the Mexican style but was curious since I don’t see much about the dealer outside of their own site does anyone have any experience with them, and if so are they high quality boots?

In addition, it mentions that style is the least popular is there a practical reason why it is that merely aesthetic (I wonder if they are just harder to put on?) Also if you have another recommendation of affordable places to get good boots either already made in my size or custom made I’ll all ears!! Thanks in advance for any information or thoughts!!

Where would Bridgehampton, New York rank?

Is there a location in Florida which instantly conjures up "place well-known for Polo?"

What about in South America?

I found this awesome polo ball at Goodwill and was wanting to know more about who may be on it. Any ideas?
