Polo



Polo is a team sport played on horseback, in which the objective is to score goals by using a long-handled mallet to hit balls into the opponent's goal. Polo is apparently sometimes played by wizardkind, as there was a Polo Challenge Trophy in the Trophy Room at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Head Polo is a variant of polo played by members of the Headless Hunt, in which the players' heads are used instead of a ball.

Lord Stoddard Withers invented a sport that was a cross between polo and Quidditch, played on winged horses, but the sport never became popular.
