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.

Size: 90 Count (Pack of 1)
This product is great. I appreciated the avocado oil included and that it's naturally sourced. It helps support sleep, bones, and muscles, which I need. The only thing is, I wish it absorbed faster. Still, overall, a good supplement for daily use.

Great supplement for overall health benefits
Size: 90 Count (Pack of 1)
I really like the features of the magnesium supplement. The fact that it's non-GMO and naturally sourced makes me feel better about taking it daily. I noticed improved sleep and muscle recovery after workouts. Including avocado oil and trace minerals is a nice touch. Overall, a good product for supporting bone, sleep, and muscle health.

Didn't help for sleep
Size: 90 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 90 Count (Pack of 1)
First of all, I want to mention that I do think this is a quality product. Sea-based magnesium has had a good effect on me before and with the combination of AstraGin and avocado oil, this is a solid list of ingredients. AstraGin is a patented proven combo of notoginseng and Astragalus that helps with absorption in small doses. This was my first time trying AstraGin and I was unsure about using it for nighttime use due to the notoginseng, which is stimulating. But I have seen this in some other sleep formulas and they claim it's only meant for absorption and shouldn't stimulate. The first time I tried it at night with some of my usual supplements, I fell asleep easily but all of a sudden woke up 2 hours later and couldn't go back to sleep for 1.5 hrs. I only drifted back to sleeping bc I was so awake and had to resort to THC gummies. I took a couple days off and tried it again and it was the same bad sleep. Your experience might be different from mine because I am very sensitive to a lot of supplements and I think the AstraGin just doesn't agree with my system but I wanted to let other sensitive people know so they can be cautious.

Naturally sourced, quality magnesium softgels, with bioavailability and absorption support.
Size: 90 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 90 Count (Pack of 1)
As someone who’s been using magnesium for years and likes to rotate between different forms like glycinate, bisglycinate, citrate, and L-threonate. I’m always on the lookout for magnesium supplements with smart formulas, especially those that prioritize bioavailability and absorption, since I’ve had issues with nutrient absorption in the past. This marine derived magnesium in softgel form really stood out to me, as I prefer softgels for bioavailability and absorption support. I’ve never been able to find a quality, natural, non-synthetic magnesium supplement in softgel form but I feel like I finally have.This aquamin magnesium was completely new to me and I found it genuinely refreshing, as it’s a break from the usual synthetic forms. You can tell right away this isn’t just another basic magnesium supplement. I’m impressed by this being a natural form of magnesium that contains 72 trace minerals that are naturally sourced from clean Irish seawater and sustainably harvested. I really appreciate the addition of avocado oil, as it helps support better absorption of magnesium. It's also a great source of healthy fats and antioxidants. Additionally this contains an ingredient completely new to me called AstraGin, which is naturally derived from astragalus and panax notoginseng. It was clinically shown to help support enhanced absorption. I really like seeing this in this supplement facts, it’s a big bonus for me, having nutrient absorption challenges. Although, anyone would benefit from high bioavailability and support for enhanced absorption. The focus on bioavailability and absorption was a big stand out, it’s exactly what I want to see in choosing a supplement. I usually use magnesium bisglycinate because of its high absorption, but this one actually claims even higher solubility compared to both glycinate and bisglycinate. A serving size of three oblong softgels provide 600 mg of magnesium sourced from sea water, 990 mg of avocado oil and 33 mg AstraGin. I love that my body is getting the support of a new form of magnesium that is natural and pure with the benefits of avocado oil and additional absorption support. healthy fats, I found three softgels easy to swallow, but I can see how these might be more challenging to have to take three of this size for a serving. I had no aftertaste or stomach upset, these seem very gentle overall. This is a high-quality magnesium supplement that's naturally sourced, with a focus on bioavailability and absorption support, that’s been clinically tested, and made with purity and transparency in mind. This is a true standout in my magnesium rotation. If you're looking for a magnesium supplement, I highly recommend trying it.
