Why I play Polo
An unbeatable wonderful feeling spreads throughout the body when you get it from horseback. It lasts long afterwards and is highly addictive.

Interests:
Riding high-wheelers, practicing motor sports as well as more quiet activities such as building maintenance, antiques and British association croquet.

Per also goes under the name Mr Scorer, because he can make unbelievable goals

Why I play Polo:
Has never been sporty but likes horses and loves to ride out. Tried Polo because my husband Per has been doing it for a few years and I always thought it looked cool when he played.


Didn't think it would suit me because I'm cautious and have a lot of self-preservation instinct but it's the most fun sport I've ever tried

 

Interest:
Loves to go to Rammstein concerts, garden design, studies Italian and likes to pet cats with one hand and have a glass of champagne in the other.

Why polo?
My family and I lived for a couple of years in the US. I am born there, a proud American woman and the American culture left a deep impression in my life. My father was a passionate equestrian and introduced this world very early to me. Five years ago I decided to make a change. I booked polo lessons at Win Polo School owned by Thomas Winter in Hamburg, Germany and got heavily addicted. Playing polo is passion which means everything to me with heart and soul even the polo ponies. It is my private life, my everything, my amusement, my joy in life, the world of polo.

Interests
Horses, golf, sport cars, motorbikes, Argentina and the gaucho culture.

Why I play Polo 
For me it’s a lifestyle and I would say that the most important after the lovely horses and the game is the friendship within the club and around the polo globe. 

Interests: 
Except polo, it’s like spending time with my wife and kids, house/farm work,  gardening and cooking. 

 

Members Comments: 

Benny performs the most fantastiskt stick work. What else to expect from a former floorball champion. He also introduced the term “hosse-slag” (unclean hitting) to the sport even though he seldom perform them in person.

Polo is the ultimate fun sport to play. Being able to ride horses with men and women playing the same sport is a favour few other sports can achieve.

Club's comments
Sebastian always arrives with a lovely smile and with an enormous amount of positive energy, he is the most well trained and hard hitting member, but when he sits in the saddle he puts the horse first and swing gently.

He now goes under the name "No Force" stated by Deepankar.
