“Unleash your passion for polo half a world away”

Gap Year Polo students

 

 

Gap Year Polo students will find New Zealand to be the perfect destination. Not only can we offer world-class polo tuition, and chukkas and games, but right at our backdoor is an adventure playground offering almost every kind of entertainment possible.


Ed and Bess share a laugh



Your trip to New Zealand during your gap year would not be complete without seeing some of the country - and there's a lot to see.

Things to see and do in New Zealand

Where else can you play polo in the morning, and then leap off a bridge in the afternoon? Maybe bungy jumping isn't your thing ... don't worry - there's plenty more to see and do!

Testimonials from Gap Year students



"Thank-you for opening your house to Thandi and I and for providing the most amazing horses and just generally for doing everything that you did for me. Hopefully we'll win the Open when I come back ... that would be great!"
-Gala Rowe-Setz


"Thank you again for a fabulous 12 days or so living, breathing, and playing polo. Just what I needed. I could not believe how well I was hitting the ball ... my all round general play has improved out of sight."
-Gus Booth, Australia


"You've increased my confidence on the field and given me the chance to play great polo. The horses have all been fab and you have such a wonderful setup ... it has been the perfect start to my GAP year."
-Amy Bletsoe-Brown, England


"I have learnt such a lot, not just about horses and polo, but also many valuable lessons in life. I am in denial that I am actually leaving."
