He started off the clinic asking our expectations what we wanted. Then he established the syllabus around those specific learning needs. Each student’s desire was addressed. That was the very first thing he did. He immediately demonstrated his ability to deliver positive feedback not criticism, and considerate coaching not sarcasm.
After reviewing some of Tom’s video series his clinic delivers “The Best Of”. I highly recommend Tom’s clinic to players at any level indoor or outdoor”.

Tom's teaching and training videos are a great benefit to the sport of polo. They demonstrate the plays and rules of the game so that new players gain understanding and amateurs gain experience.

Tom Goodspeed has the ability to demonstrate/explain the complicated game of polo in a manner that is understood by both beginning and experienced players. If you want to improve your game, polo knowledge and horsemanship, the time spent at a Tom Goodspeed Clinic is time very well spent.
A Tom Goodspeed clinic on Rules of play, Umpiring and overall understanding of polo gives a fresh outlook at the rules, the proper positioning of Umpires, what to look for, how to communicate between umpires, other players. Once you understand the basics of polo your game will continue to improve and be more enjoyable.
