Sorry to see this price change
We were really getting into Polo but this new pricing is not going to fly for us. We will no longer attend.
I did go two weeks ago and they did let us in for free since we were early. I also noticed that it seemed that attendance was way down. Just my observation which may be wrong. I don't think the cost of polo ponies and riders has anything to do with it. To play the sport you must be very wealthy. The horses are very well trained and expensive. The fields are expensive to maintain. All the costs of polo usually rides on the players. I can't imagine the gate proceeds being of any significant value to the cost of running a polo match.
I don't know what's behind these kind of high prices. But I hope whoever is in charge thinks ahead a little. I don't think the polo field has any connection to The Villages so we can probably leave the developer out.
