Polo is a racket-like sport, but instead of flying the ball rolling on the ground, instead of waving the racket high in the air, it is held backwards downwards, and the rider is on the horse's back.

The polo has been the game of princes and sultans since ancient times.

It was invented by the Persians and spread to India, Japan, China, Egypt and the Levant during the reign of the Ayyubid and Mamluk states.

Polo tools include a helmet, boots and a wooden ball, gloves to protect hands, as well as a long stick and knee protector.

The polo is played on horses called bonny, and the bonny is changed after each half. And half, the polo team consists of 4 players.
