Myopia Polo holds the distinction of being one of the oldest active clubs in America. One of five charter members of the United States Polo Association in 1891, except for two wartime hiatuses, club players have competed on summer Sundays on the original Gibney Field (named after what was Gibney Farm) since the first game in 1887.

Gibney Field was the scene of the first formal intercollegiate game, with Harvard playing Yale in 1907. It has hosted the U.S. Senior Championship, the equivalent of what is now the U.S. Open championship. Polo scenes from the 1967 movie classic 'The Thomas Crown Affair' with Steve McQueen were shot on the site.

Gibney Field is highlighted in Horace Laffaye's sweeping 2009 book "The Evolution of Polo" quoting from Newell Bent's 1929 volume 'American Polo': "The dip at the clubhouse end has never been graded, and, after all, to the spectators watching the game, there is always the added interest in the wonder as to whether the players whose bobbing heads can be seen in the distance are making a goal or not. They will still bob after a knock-in. But if they slowly ride towards us, growing in size as first hull down under the horizon, we know that the score has changed and that they are coming back to the center of the field for play to begin again... In spite of the dip, it is a very excellent field."

Many have been the memorable Gibney games, including the first contest with archrival Dedham in September 1888 ending in a 13-0 whitewash for the home team after the visitor's captain was injured on the opening play. Another much publicized game was played in the teens against what was billed as a visiting American Indian team who arrived in native regalia, only to be found out at game's end to be out of state pranksters. In 1970 there was an international contest against a fine visiting team from New Zealand. Other noteworthy matches include a Junior Westchester Cup game, Young Britain vs. Young Myopia in the 1980's, and numerous thrilling sudden death overtimes in the 20-goal East Coast Open.

Many too have been the 10-goal players - the highest possible handicap - who have graced local polo, ranging from Myopia's own Rodolphe Agassiz in the 1910's to Adam Snow in the 2000's and including such visiting superstars as the great Tommy Hitchcock Jr. in the 1920's, Australian Bob Skene in the 1980's and an assortment of contemporary American polo greats like Owen Rinehart and Memo Gracida and scions of famous Argentine polo families such as Marcos and Eduardo Heguy and Gonzalo and Alfonso Pieres.

Myopia Polo's rich mix of history, bucolic setting, equine and athletic energy comprises a colorful tapestry for players and spectators alike every summer Sunday at the oldest polo club in the country.

Bright & Pretty Hot Pink.
Color: Pitaya Red, Color: Pitaya Red
Very pretty and bright. It’s thick and great quality. Strong grip and doesn’t come off easily. Easy to clean when it gets dirty. It also has a nice backing. I prefer the transparent bright pink backing than the clear version. I love the strong magnetic for when I position it upwards. It can be positioned downwards too.

Very protective iPad case

This MoKo iPad case is excellent! It fits perfectly and provides great protection without adding bulk. The navy blue color looks very sleek, and the translucent back shell is a nice touch. It’s super magnetic, with great padding. The smart cover works flawlessly with the auto wake/sleep feature, and the cutouts line up perfectly for Touch ID. Lightweight, durable, and a fantastic value!

Perfect, it fits like a glove.
Color: 1-Navy Blue
I really liked the sleeve, the navy blue color looks very elegant and the material feels resistant but soft to the touch. What I like the most is that the back is translucent, so you still see the design of the tablet. It works great for watching videos because it stands firm when folding it, and turning off the screen alone when closing it is very practical. Because of the price it has, the quality is excellent.

Great Protective Case for My Mother’s iPad
Color: 2-Watermelon Red, Color: 2-Watermelon Red
I bought this case along with my mother’s new iPad, and it was the perfect choice. The watermelon red color looks beautiful with the pink iPad and gives it a very clean and stylish look. The case feels sturdy without adding too much weight, which makes it comfortable for her to carry around and use every day. The stand feature works really well for watching videos, reading, and video calls. I also like that the case supports the auto wake and sleep function, which makes the iPad feel even more convenient and easy to use. The cutouts fit perfectly, and Touch ID still works without any issues. The translucent back is a nice touch because it still lets the iPad color show through while keeping it protected from scratches and bumps. Overall, this case exceeded expectations and makes a great addition for anyone wanting both protection and style for their iPad.
