Guests are encouraged to bring their own polo attire where possible, including a riding helmet, knee pads, gloves, and riding boots. However, there is no need to bring polo mallets or horse tack, as these are readily available at the club. For lessons and practice sessions, standard riding gear is perfectly sufficient. If you do not have your own polo boots, the club regularly visits a local supplier who creates high-quality custom-made boots. In addition, La Tarde Polo whites, playing shirts, gloves, and other equipment are available for purchase during your stay.

Age is no barrier at La Tarde Polo Club, however of course like with any sport the earlier you start the better you will become. We have guests from any age, children riding as young as 5 and members who started in their 50's and we firmly believe everyone can have the same enjoyment of this sport, no matter their experience, ability or age.

La Tarde Polo Club is open to guests from October till the end of April, the spring and summer months of Argentina. Many of guests like to come during November and December when the major polo tournaments are played in Argentina including the unmissable Palermo Open, however the weather begins to cool down in Febuary/march and April making it a very pleasant time of year to visit.

Like many sports there is a goal on each end of the Polo field and the aim is to score as many goals with your team as possible. After each goal is scored the goal ends are changed ends. A polo match is divided into chukkas, either 4, 6 or 8 chukkas depending on the match, players and horses available. A chukka is 7 minutes long and the interval between each chukka is 3 minutes. In a match you have either 3 or 4 players in a team, and 1 or 2 umpires. A fit horse should never play 2 chukkas in sequence and at top level never play more than 2 chukkas on the same day. There are a number of rules in polo, the main being "the line of the running ball" which means that the person closest to the line of the ball has the right of way and you are not allowed to cross that line from the person who is the closest angle to the line.
