Bicycle Polo
Bicycle polo is played just like the traditional polo played on horse back, however it is played on bicycles. It is a team game with three to five players a side. Each player has a mallet, which is a hammer with a large, soft head. With the mallet, the players have to drive a plastic, or wooden, ball across the surface, in order to score. The traditional game of polo is played on a grass field, however hard court bicycle polo can be played on tennis courts, hockey rinks, or whatever flat, ideal surface the players can find. If the ball is driven through the goalpost then the team that scored will be awarded one point, when a team reaches five points, the game will end.
There is not much equipment needed to take part in a bicycle, however three things are key, a bicycle, a mallet and a plastic/wooden ball. When this equipment is ready and a team is sorted, then the game is ready to be played.
