And i'm horse-less at the moment. Do you play? Are you going to weston-super-mare to play on the beach?

Sorry no I don't. But I keep wanting to go and ask to watch. The local club practice at the local indoor riding school but would love to watch. How big is the area they play in? Friends daughter used to play but went off to Uni so gave it up. I always think you need to be pretty fit. I'd fall off I think

Can someone fill me in on the general rules please?

don't know if this will work but this is a video of our last match - we're novices but have been playing over a year. I promise it did NOT look like this when we started!
When you start you spend most of the time walking and trotting, dropping the ball, and learning not to tense up as soon as you let go of the reins...! Oh, and forgetting to do up the girth properly and sliding right round on the saddle... a lot of that too.

I really want to start playing, saw a match for the very first time at the Pony Europeans at the weekend and absolutely loved it. It was so much fun!
