The sport of polo is divided into 4, 5 or 6 'quarters' known as what; how long do they go for; and why do they go for that time period?
 
they go for 7 1/2 minutes althoughh I'm buggered if I can work out why.To match the real amount of days in a week?
 
polo started off with two 30-minute halves, then went to four 15-minute quarters, then eight 7.5-minute chukkers, then six chukkers to save the horses

I guess I'll pay that.  The reason I had was

    "Chukkas: Each polo match is divided in to "Chukkas". A chukka is 7 1/2 minutes of active play time and is supposed to represent the amount of time a horse can reasonably exert itself before needing a rest. Polo Matches are divided into 4,5, or 6 Chukkas depending whether the level is Low, Medium, or High goal polo."
