How Many Periods In A Game?

Answer»

There are six periods, CALLED “chukkers,” in a polo game (four in Indoor/Arena Polo), each LASTING 7 minutes. At the end of the 6 1/2 minutes, a bell sounds to let the players know 30 seconds REMAIN. At 7 minutes, a HORN sounds to end the period.

In the event of a tie at the end of the final chukker, there is a 5-minute intermission to allow the players to catch their breath and change to a fresh mount before beginning a chukker in which the first team to score WINS the match.
