Polocrosse is an interesting mounted sport that is like a cross between Polo and Lacrosse. It is played with great enthusiasm in United States Pony Club!!
FYI, here is a polocrosse clinic being offered October 6th & 7th for both adults and children in Clayton, CA (East Bay). You don't have to be a pony club member to participate!! It sounds like fun; I will probably be participating with my daughter.
All you need is a willing horse, an approved helmet, and boots to participate! I will be taking Rescue Horse Reggie, a dyed-in-the-wool dressage gentleman....
