What sort of game is it ?

A simple game

Two teams of four players attempt to score into the opponent's goal. The team with the most of goals wins the game. Because of the goals, the passes game, and the quick actions, Horse-Ball can be compared to basketball.

A safe game

The rules of the game insure a collective and fast safe game. The game is controlled by two referees one mounted and the second one seated with a view of the entire pitch. The referees have a radio connection for direct communication.

Played in a standard riding area

The game is played in a normal riding area of 20x60 meters - ideal dimensions being 25x65 meters. The goals are one meter loops hooked vertically at 4.50 meters off the ground.

A true team game

An important point of the game is that you must make at least three passes between three different team members before it is allowed to score. Therefore all team members must collaborate together for each action.
