Learn to Play Polo at Ascot's Coworth Park Hotel in England
June 28, 2012
This academy will give guests of the Berkshire based property the opportunity to learn and train with one of Britain's most experienced players, alongside playing members of the world's most famous polo club. With numerous victories around the world, Andrew is the only player to have both captained and managed the English national team, which is now based at Coworth Park. Additionally he coaches the award-winning, high-goal team Zacara, winners of the British Open Championship in 2011.
Andrew Hine commented, "I am delighted to be bringing my academy to Coworth Park. Polo is one of the very few sports where players can enjoy all the best elements of activity simultaneously: adrenalin; contact; teamwork and coordination skills - continuously heightened by the speed, strength and agility of the pony."
Neil Hobday, Chief Executive of Guards Polo Club said, "The creation of 'Guards Polo Academy at Coworth Park' will enable us to provide a complete package to our members - offering them the best fixture list, the best Club facilities and now the best training."
In addition to offering the very highest polo tuition to members of Guards Polo Club, Andrew and his team of leading polo coaches will introduce this ever more accessible and popular sport to non-players through the Academy's corporate and private leisure experiences, allowing polo enthusiasts of all levels to truly get a taste for the game.
Andrew Hine's 'Guards Polo Academy at Coworth Park' offers a wide variety of lessons and polo days. An hour-long private lesson can be booked from £160 (approximately $203 USD), with a course of five lessons from £750 (approximately $952 USD), while group lessons (three people or more) cost from £150 per person (approximately $190 USD). Andrew and his team also offer half and full day Discover Polo experiences, or alternatively can arrange bespoke polo experiences for individual clients. Instructional chukkas (polo games) are available for the more serious player, as is chukka hire and the England team manager will also be offering a three-day elite polo academy during the course of the summer. Preferential rates are offered for guests of Coworth Park and Guards Polo Club members, guests must be over ten years of age.
Zoe Jenkins, General Manager of Coworth Park, commented, "We are thrilled to be building on the hotel's unique polo offering in the United Kingdom, providing the best experiences for our guests and introducing this exhilarating and cosmopolitan sport to a new audience."
