Bike polo is polo on bikes, without as much rules. It is often played on fixies for increased lateral maneuverability.
Two goals are set up on the ends of a rectangular field, often designated with two cones per goal. A suitable ball, whether a street hockey ball for challenging play or a soccer ball for faster action, is set in the middle. Play starts with the teams behind their goal line. Upon the initiation of play, the teams charge for the ball. Scoring obviously occurs when the ball is passed through the opposition's goal in the proper direction.
Rules of Contact:
-Bike on bike
-Biker on biker
-Mallet on mallet
-NEVER SHALL THE CATEGORIES MIX!
If your foot touches the ground, it is a foul and you are out of play until you ride back to a specific point, defined for each game.
