1. no dabbing.

putting your foot on the ground is dabbing.
if you do that, you have to make a complete circle before you
can touch the ball with your mallet again.

2. only shots, not shuffles, count.

a shot is made with the end of the mallet's
head. like croquet or something. a shuffle is anything else.
goals only count if they are shots.

we play sundays at the east "tennis" court at alberta park, NE 22nd &
killingsworth. it has no net, and we've installed "gutters" in the corners.

we also play wednesdays, but lately it's been out front the polo house,
so as we can set up lights to see in the cul-de-sac. balls.

like scientology, polo is a religon. you must give us all your money or
else you'll never be any good. and you won't go to heaven.
and no one will like you.
and you won't get any cake.
it's so delicious and moist.
