Polocrosse

I love lacrosse.  And I have found a new form that is very exciting.  Polocrosse.

Today, we took a road trip down to Southern Pines to meet up with friends of Amy's, Janice Binkley and her sons Beecher and Tristan.  Beecher plays a sport called Polocrosse.  Lacrosse on horseback.  Who knew?  And boy is it a different game with thousands of pounds of horses involved. 

The team in Green is the Carolina club and the team in Red, White and Blue is the USA World Cup team.  Men and women compete together.

Beecher is not yet 16 and he has already competed for the United States in Australia.  If you haven't ever seen the sport, give it a try.
