Incredibly Helpful and Very Specific
"This is the only website I have found specific to polo that is incredibly helpful and very specific. If I have a problem in training my horse I can find some different ideas so I am not just doing the same thing that is not working. Also for myself, if I am getting beat in a certain play or not hitting a shot consistently or as well as I would like I can always find a solution. Lastly I find Gav VERY easy to understand and in a relaxed manner that allows me to learn what he is trying to teach. Please keep up the good work! I appreciate both Gav and Rob's help very much."

My Understanding of the Game (Has) Increased Greatly
"After finding GavSays Polo Academy, my understanding of the game increased greatly . Having experience in other equine disciplines was helpful , but I wanted the how's & why's of the game. Starting polo at 56 was hard enough, I have gone through & back through the pillars and videos along with lessons weekly . I believe you'd be able to tell which players use all the Academy has to offer."

I think GavSays is the absolute best tool out there for anyone at any level of polo
"I have been a member of GavSays for a few years now. I think this is the best tool anyone can use to improve their polo. At any given moment of your day, you can access GavSays and have a virtual lesson at your fingertips. If you take an hour lesson at home, you will pay far more for that one lesson than the academy costs for months! And how many of us retain all that is said in that one hour lesson? With the academy, you can go over the videos again and again and Gav and Rob will answer any questions you may have. You can send videos of yourself to Gav for critique. You can send videos of your game for review, too! A bonus perk is it is a wonderful way to connect with people around the world. I think GavSays is the absolute best tool out there for anyone at any level of polo; from beginners, to horse trainers, to weekend warriors, to high rated professionals, Gav can help us all."
