We all know that Polo in its many forms originally started life where riders on horseback, armed with mallet and trusty steed battled it out on the field of play. Players on the two opposing teams hit a ball with their mallets, trying to get the ball into the other team’s goal... Legend has it, in India in the 1860’s instead of a ball being the object of play, the heads of defeated enemies were used. Much has changed in the modern game of polo since then and many variations can be found around the World, none better or more exhilarating than SEGWAY POLO, in which each player rides the technological marvel that is a Segway Personal Transporter on the field of play. The rules have been adapted from horse polo, and indeed many horse polo enthusiasts, competitors and sportsmen and women from around the world have become hooked on this new game that is Segway Polo. Now YOU can now play this great game in Ireland and experience the thrill of Segway Polo first hand! REVIEWS FROM TRIP ADVISER “Fantastic fun !” The idea of playing Segway polo was the motivation for us choosing to go Cork for a stag party and we were not disappointed ! The day was non stop fun with lots of segway games played before we went on to play polo on the segways! I cannot recom- mend this enough for any groups who are seeking something different to do! John and his team make it a really fun day ! I’d say segway polo is undoubtedly “Segway Polo on a Stag Do” the most fun group activity I’ve done ! - We all had a great time playing Segway Polo on a Stag Do. Anthonydodge, London, United Kingdom The Segway’s are a lot of fun and easy to master and we were shooting up and down the pitch in no time. I would definitely recommend the experience to any stag or other group. If I ever visit on a stag again I would have no hesi- “Segway Polo Experience” tation in booking this. Had the most amazing fun Ben M, Kingston upon Thames, United Kingdom on two wheels ever!! Thanks for bringing segway Polo to Wicklow where we had expert tuition with a strong “A MUST TRY!! - Excellent Craic” emphasis on safety, and in no time we were playing our Just home from a recent stag do in Dublin, which first game of Segway Polo!! I would definitely recom- involved Segway Polo on the Saturday, best days mend trying this to everyone! My expectations were craic we have had in long time. A must try for any that it wouldbe very difficult to master, but in the space stag weekend activity, the craic was brilliant and of two minutes I was zipping around without a care in John made sure everyone had a great laugh and got the world! Can’t wait everyone up and running and got the hang of the to try it again!! segways in no time. Top job John!!
