BSG Team Ventures has issued a challenge to the City to attract newcomers to polo. BSG Team Ventures is calling on all those curious about the Sport of Kings to try their hand at polo on a Discover Polo day with a view to forming a team and competing in the Pro-Am City Polo Championships 2006.  Non-riders and riders are all welcome and no experience or equipment is necessary.

Simon Haworth of BSG Team Ventures is Ascot Park Polo Club's newest brand partner and is seeking to bring together a group of amateur players over the Winter Season. No previous riding experience is required with the overall objective to introduce more players to the sport. The Pro-Am City Polo Championships is a unique competition specifically tailored for City players from complete beginners right through to professionals and provides the opportunity for newcomers to take part in their first competition and gives an exciting target to work toward.

Simon Haworth, BSG Team Ventures, commented,

"When I saw polo for the first time at last year's Pro-Am City Championships I knew that I had to have a go and to find out what it takes to get to a competitive level. Starting from scratch and with only the faintest memory of riding I personally have a long way to go before I can compete and it would be nice to have a few others with whom to commiserate when I miss the ball AGAIN."

If you work in the Venture Capital industry, work in the City or even just want to try your hand at polo then BSG Team Ventures and Ascot Park Polo Club want to hear from you. Get in touch for the chance to come to a Discover Polo day where you will learn the theory and rules behind polo, learn about the polo swing, learn how to ride a polo pony and even play your first game of polo. 

To get involved with the BSG Team Ventures Discover Polo day contact simon.haworth@bsgteamventures.com  or call Simon on 01223 472757.
