During the major practice, the student was able to familiarize and experience pre- polo tournament turf management practices which gave her idea on how to deal with the maintenance operations. The student was able to understand and observe a polo game which helps her comprehend the difference between the management practices of a polo field turf as against to a golf course turf.
