George Arthur Miller

Equestrian Sports

George Arthur Miller (6 December 1867 to 21 February 1935) was a British polo player who competed in the 1908 Summer Olympics as a member of the Roehampton team, which won the gold medal. He was educated at Marlborough College and Trinity College, Cambridge. The English Wikipedia article on him is only two sentences long, so this entry keeps to those facts. Polo is a mounted team sport in which riders strike a ball with long-handled mallets, and the Olympic tournament of 1908, in which the Roehampton side took the title, was one of the few times the sport formed part of the Games.
