Synopsis

"Polo Champions" offers a comprehensive exploration of polo's fascinating journey from ancient Persian military training grounds to today's elite equestrian sport. The book masterfully weaves together historical narrative, technical instruction, and player profiles to create a complete picture of this complex sport that demands the unique combination of horsemanship, tactical thinking, and team coordination.Through meticulous research drawing from private archives, sporting records, and firsthand accounts, the book illuminates how polo adapted across cultures while maintaining its core principles. Readers discover how British cavalry officers transformed a Central Asian military exercise into an organized Western sport, and how countries like Argentina and the United States later revolutionized playing styles.The technical sections provide detailed insights into crucial elements like stick work, riding techniques, and the vital role of polo ponies, supported by slow-motion photography and tactical diagrams. The book progresses logically through three main sections: historical development, technical analysis, and player profiles, making it valuable for both newcomers and experienced enthusiasts.It examines major tournaments, significant players, and the sport's evolution across polo-playing nations, while addressing contemporary challenges such as accessibility and sustainability. This analytical yet accessible approach makes it an essential resource for anyone interested in understanding the intricate world of competitive polo and its rich historical legacy.

    Miracle in Shreveport - A Memoir...

    Twin brothers David and Jason Benham grew up with big dreams of baseball and an even bigger trust in God. Though they attended a small high school with no baseball field, turned down a professional offer so they could attend college together, and faced more than one missed pitch and injuries, they kept dreaming, praying together on the field, and believing in God’s provision for their lives. 
    David and Jason’s journey, from Little League to college to professional baseball and beyond, reminds us that even when we don’t know what God is up to, He’s putting together the pieces of our life’s puzzle and executing the plans He has for each of us. 
    Miracle in Shreveport tells the story of a family’s love, the power of prayer, and a game that is truly all-American. It is also the story of brotherhood staying strong, despite the threat of comparison in a profession committed to competition. Most of all, it is the story of being faithful in small steps, honoring God in the process, and trusting His hand in our lives. In this audio book, the Benhams call us to remember that when we follow God’s dream for us, we find it is better than we could have ever dreamed for ourselves.
