polo
Equestrian ball game
Polo is a sport played on horseback in which two teams use long-handled mallets to drive a ball toward the opposing goal.
The game requires skilled horsemanship and is associated with wealth and aristocracy.
Water polo adapts the concept for swimming pools, with players passing and shooting by hand.
A polo shirt has a soft collar and buttoned placket, originally worn for the sport.
