Once you become a skillful rider, the most important element you have to learn in polo is the correct grip. Without a perfect grip, you will always try to compensate during the swing.

This tendency to compensate will make you grip the mallet tighter than you should, you will hit the ground more often than not and you will not be able to rotate your shoulder fully.

This in time will provoke pain in your wrist, elbow and shoulder, which will lead to thoughts of the like of “this is not for me, I’m not in shape, or I’m not strong enough for this sport”. The simple truth is that your grip is wrong.
