think I will stick with a smaller MTB style glove.
Ive been wearing dakine gloves for nearly 6 months of polo and held up pretty well, got em for ridding DH originally but pretty good for polo as well.

Just a quick up date, as our newer team has 4 players we have decided that for the open we will allow teams to have a sub who can be used at anytime during games.
Also we would like to give a big thanks to MAGIC BIKE POLO http://magicbikepolo.com/
who are supporting the open and suppling prizes -

At the moment as this is our inaugural tournie, the open is aimed as more of a fun event and working with time constraints and only one court wanted to keep no.s at a max whilst still being concious of time. (we would like to start 10/10.30 and be done by 7/8pm latest)
we would ideally like a spread of teams from across the UK scene and european if they would like to travel. We didnt realise we would have this much interest so early on when we decided format.

There is a proper campsite about a mile along the road at a place called Housedean Farm. £8pppn... but there is a shower and you're allowed fires.

Canterbury are booked in there if anyone else wants to join us, if you say your playing polo they lump pitches together from sound of it.
