[SPORTS] What kind of sports do you play?

[seaweedpatchkid]

Just out of curiosity, what kind of sports do you people play or do? It doesn't have to be something you're really good at...just something you enjoy doing.

I swim...I don't enjoy it anymore, but I still do it. I think waterpolo is fun as long as you don't get nailed in the face with the ball and basketball is great.

Baseball bores me and soccer looks painful. I don't understand football and my high school team holds the area's record for losing.

Badminton is a backyard sport to me, despite the fact that I know it can be played competitively. Volleyball is tough and kinda painful.


What about you?

:D

[indigo]

I'm more interested in water sports, like kayaking/canoeing and swimming, don't really like the 'ground' ones. But I don't really kayak that often coz I'm too lazy :bleh:

I wanna try windsurfing, my friend said it's fun, or flying fox:-)

[YuCheng]

hmm.. i play basketball.. its very fun when you are playing with a group of friends.. :D

but i enjoy watching soccer..

[kjd-108]

been playin' basketball, badminton and table tennis ever since i was really young...football (soccer), volleyball, baseball, and ball when i was in high school, etc.......

does snooker considered as a sport? ;p and bowling? XD

heck...too many to mention... >.>

[seaweedpatchkid]

I don't know? oO;;

It's like that whole debate on if cheerleading is a sport?

IS it a sport? I guess...in a way it is...but...in a way it's just a bunch of girls dancing around. Basketball is great...but I'm not allowed to play anymore. :( So sad....

[kjd-108]

cheerleading...a sport? bah...htat's like saying dancing is...! XP and walkin' is another form of sports... XD;

why aren't you allowed to play basketball? :(

[azn_noodles]

i took swimming lessons since i was five. when i moved to california, i was done (besides the last lvl, which wasnt really a lvl but just practice) i would have been on a swim team, but its too expensive here :sweat: um, lacrosse is pretty awsome :happy: also, the discus (is that spelled right? :? ) is fun too....well....thats cuz i'm actually good at it^^ got farthest outa my whole class....(BEAT THAT FOUMBERG) *ahem* is tag considered a sport? if so, tunnel tag and toilet tag and alphabet tag :happy: those are awsome-o

[SimpleBlackHumor89]

i love basketball and swimming. those were the first two sports i ever learned when i was small, i swam everyday in the summer, and i just taught myself basketball, just basic shooting, no dribbles or whatever. i like football as well

i dont really like racketsports, but sometimes badmington is fun sometimes. soccer is fun too, baseball as well. i dont like volley ball, it's a hard sport, and very PAINFUL as well. but i like watching it though, it's a good game to watch, very exciting

[JianDan[Ai]]

cheerleading...a sport? bah...htat's like saying dancing is...! XP and walkin' is another form of sports... XD;




Whats wrong with cheerleading and dancing as a sport? I don't do either, but some of my good friends do it, and I support them completly.


1)
a)Physical activity that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often engaged in competitively.
b)A particular form of this activity.
2)An activity involving physical exertion and skill that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often undertaken competitively.
3)An active pastime; recreation.


It would be an uneducated assumption to say that cheerleading and dancing dont have rules, are physical activities, recreational pastimes, or competitive.

Anyways, to answer the question, I play soccer and basketball as well track and field.

[seaweedpatchkid]

LOL. XD

If I had friends that did cheerleading, I'd support them...but I don't. So I sometimes question cheerleading.

I've seen cheerleaders at games...and they're very...boring. I've done swimming since I was like five and I've always loved it. I joined my high school team my freshmen year, and I've been on it ever since. It was great until this year when my coach started acting kind of like an ass and now all the seniors on the team (including me) hate it. We all want to quit. That's how bad it's gotten.

And my doctor forbids me to play basketball because I sprain my ankle too often when playing basketball. All leg injuries I have had have been from basketball. I still love it though. :)




One of the biggest questions at my school is: Is golf REALLY a sport???

[HarmonyCloud]

My favorite sport has got to be Soccor so thats what I play, I also do Tae Kwon Do (is that a sport?)....I also like Tennis but I haven't done it in a while...

[seaweedpatchkid]

Personally, I believe that most sports the Olympics considers a sport, is a sport. There's certain things though...that are slightly questionable...

[Jaded_Star]

I play basketball, netball, baseball, softball, hardball, volleyball, ruby, badminton and soccer.

[j@y_roCks]

I don't like to vigourous sports, like basketball, soccer, volleyball and all those balls.. I only like swimming, badminton and table tennis...

However, I don't really know how to play table tennis...
As for swimming and badminton, my standard is still average...

And if sports=exercise, then I would like to say I like walking!! Walking is also a kind of exercise right? I walk to school from home almost everyday...!! Because I always get out of house late, so I had to walk quickly... So.. maybe, this kind of walk can be counted as exercise? Sometimes I do perspire when I walk, especially I walk quite a long distance from my house to school, and school to house...

[kirasuran]

oooh very nice question....well yeh i can play any sports....the ones i actually do play regularly are rugby (6 years) and soccer, (no experience but playing club this season), tennis and volleyball, i can also pick up swimming, basketball, table tennis, badminton, and anything else....yer...hahaa sports is really fun!!! especially soccer and rugby...the best...

[no_pride]

I like to play badminton. I was once a school team player before (for a year only), and dropped out of the team because, hmm...maybe I'm not that a good player? Yeah, I guess so... ;)

I also like to play basketball, but occaionally, when the weather is not too hot and the basketball court has the vacancy for me to play (because when the weather is always just right, the guys will occupy the whole court :( ).

And, I swim once in every 2 weeks. I hope to get tanner, so it makes me look healthier. Keke...

[CybOrKoTiC]

I've been playing basketball since i can remember, my parents played bball and got me into it early... but after high school i rarely play it now, cept when mates come over and do some activities.. but we usually play cricket or australian football.
does electronic sport count?

[MonicHu]

i really hate sweating but i used to play basketball...that was an exception

i've been on the swim team since freshman year but i'm gonna quit in a couple of days...
golf is my other favorite sport now. i'm trying to nail the driving range and then go on the course this summer!

[Pugwash]

Badminton a backyard sport?! We'll have to spend a good afternoon together. HAHA. No but seriously, I think badminton can get quite competitive and intense. I got hit with a smash in my right eye and now my right eye is worse than my left.

I play provincial badminton + regional v-ball as power. :)

[XiaoWuan]

I play volleyball...at my school we always had a volleyball tournament at the end of the year....

[canuck_girl39]

I play field hockey. It's an uber fun sport, but very underrated... not many girls join the school team.....totally sucks :dry: i also play netball, which is also fun :-) .

hmm does ddr also count as a sport?

[gladwin]

I played lots of sports, i love sports they are fun with my friends
My favourite sports is soccer, i love soccer very much. Its fun and controlling the ball is cool :-)

My other sports are tennis, swimming, basketball etc.. but overall best soccer :bleh:

[-=Jay Chou=-]

I don't play any sport but basketball.

1. basketball is cool
2. street ballers are cooler (me =D)
3. soccer makes you short (urban myth)

[Joey88]

i can play lots of different sports. i have to do PE 6 times a week in my school so i have to regualarly run alot. my most favourite sport is Basketball. i dont know why. im not even tall enough to play it properly... im 5"11.

i play football a lot too now. everyone plays it in the UK so i started playing it too. pretty hard. football isnt a talent i have in my genes.

badminton i play too. i can play that quite good until i run out of breath and thats when i start playing terribly. Same with hockey...

[miracleofsuzaku]

i play ping pong since i was like 7 years old but i play outside of school thou..

[nm amazon]

i play handball, its a very popular sport in ny and cali. im prtty decent at it and i ll probabli make into the team tis year.

[seaweedpatchkid]

Oo; I didn't know there were Handball teams.

At my school we have the basics...:

Cross Country
Track/Field
Swimming
Waterpolo
Tennis
Basketball
Badminton
Football
Golf

Etc...

[coolieteen]

I am a very athletic person. I play heaps of sports but these are some:

I play softball/baseball. I have a very powerful arm so yea.
I play tennis too also with my powerful arm.
I play soccer. I really enjoy kicking the soccer ball.
I play basketball. Even though it's a guys sport, I really hate netball cuz u can't bounce the ball so I play basketball. Never wanted to represent my school though...
I play table tennis like Jay. I suck but hey, not many girls my age are good at table tennis.
I play badminton. I love the fact that I can smash the ball as hard as i can and it usually doesn't go out. When you're angry, you should play badminton and hit the shuttle as hard as u can to express your anger.lol.

That's all for now. Oh and I am also a speedy runner.
Hope I didn't bore you out with my sports...

[gCjs84]

I do play a lot of sports. I kind of liked to try out all the sports when I was young. Let us see, I play

Soccer - My favourite sport till now. I do not know why but I guess that is because soccer is the major favourite sport in my country so I am naturally addicted to it
Canoe - I tried canoeing before and man it is tough... Really tiring on your arms man
Swimming - I learnt swimming when I was young because my parents think that swimming is an essential skill in which everyone should know... :?

My schools also has this sports education thing in which they will introduce the students to different kind of sports. Of course, they will only teach us the basics of each sports so I do know about more sports than those listed actually...

[lurvee-jielun]

hmm. i don't really like to run though. only can make it for short distances.
anyway. i like badminton and swimming. but there's not much time that i can play.

[Jie_Lun_Rox]

i don't really do sports.. i do run and play basketball.. and swimming only.. Basketball rocks!

[spork]

i used to love basketball, but then for some reason i stopped...no particular reason. probably discouraged by my suckiness in it, hehe.
In terms of team sports I used to wrestle and paddle for Dragon Boat. Good days, those were. Now I just run, which is pretty fun on a good sunny day because I run along the beach :)

[Sweet_Monkey]

I used to play volleyball...but after I changed the school there is no one who likes to play volleyball....I also like to play soccer...hehe...I think for a girl I'm pretty good in soccer... :-)

[XueQi]

i play all sports , but basketball is my favor 1 and the 1 taht i play the most

[Crazy Cat SE7EN]

I live for baseball and softball. But I play basketball with friends and sometimes soccer, even though I don't know any of the rules.

[dagamezmasta]

american soccer/european football ALL THE WAY.

hehe i'm a hardcore soccer player.

and i also do all kinds of sports for school PE. my parents make me play badminton, and i enjoy playing ping pong also.

[kirasuran]

hey...well...i play like every kind of sport..i thought there was a thread like this somewher? maybe in small talk...anyway....

i play soccer and rugby (union) actively...other sports i can/occasiionally plya re badminton, tennis, swimming, basketball...and stuff like that...yeh...anyway

im hardcore at rugby and soccer...6 years of rugby, and 2 years for soccer....rugby i play anywhere, and i mean anywhere but i prefer to be fullback, the last defender...which also relates to me playing soccer as well, cos i play centreback/sweeper/ roaming defender. im da star play, trying not to boast...its what the coach has told me...anyway...yeh..

edit: dagamezmasta!!!! COME TALK IN THE SOCCER THREAD!!!! ITS DEAD!!! COME AND HELP ME BRING IT TO LIFE!!!!

[Jie_Lun_Rox]

i play basketball(sometimes only), and i swim, but mostly is Track and field.. i don't even know how to cycle! volleyball is kinda fun but the training is tough and u need to master it for a long time..

[mercurialvapor24]

wow basketball seems popular. its my fav sporti played for leagues, my schools and stuff. Also captain of soccer adn cross country for my school. but i play just about every sport (except tennis)

[KaZaF]

i like to play tennis when you are playing with all your friends you will find it intresting..use to like soccer and basketball..I find that tennis is more fun :-)

[coolieteen]

Lol. I see theres a debate on cheerleading. I did cheerleading, once for about 2 years in Intermediate. I realised after the two years that it wasn't really my thing and took up alot of time. And plus, you get thrown up in the air. Isn't that risking your life? So yeah. hehe just my opinion in experience.

Anyways, I play football (Okay so not many girls play football but the girls football team always kicks tha boys' butts!).
I also play badminton which keeps me real fit I guess because you run alot and plus I play singles so yea.
Umm what else... Table tennis? I guess that's not counted. I don't play that much but I do enjoy playing it but I'm not good compared to my brother... Lol.
Umm... does sprints count? Haha I don't know. I do relays and 100metre and 200metre sprints. I am totally useless at 1500m coz I can't do long distance. Pahahaah. So yeah..
Oh wait! Theres another one. Squash!!!!! I love to play squash. Although it may seem boring because you hit against the wall but it's real fun. You are allowed to hit as hard as you want between the lines so thats kewl.

Haha. I know what you're thinking. This chick plays alota sport right? Haha. But I dono. I guess I'm a pretty sporteh person right! I'm more into gound sport. Not really water. So yup.

[Rurouni[X]]

Ive been swimming since i was four... im still swimming now...
Not very competitive.. Just squad on Friday nights and swimming meets and carnivals every so often.
I play soccer at skool with friends... its really dirty soccer cause its kinda like... grab and kick and punch ccause we dont have a ref lol.
Im not bad at Bowling, Tennis, badmington, squash and Water Polo..
But Water Polo is a really dangerous sport lol.. not only do tbhey chuch balls at your head sometimes there are fights and people try to drown you.

And im totally screwed at B-Ball, Base ball and Cricket

[IncomparableYX]

[danny24]

[Stevenz]

I play footie the most.. At least twice a week. I like badminton too, but seldom play.. coz my mates are mostly interested in footie only. whenever we've time, it's footie time.

[chewy]

[DannLionel]

[sam_ho]

Ah..well.

I LOVE softball. I sacrifice my body for it, but I won't give up on my team. I don't know why I'm so attached to it, even though I've almost broken my lip and nose once...><

I like swimming, but only for fun. And I LOVE badminton, tennis and ping pong.

I want to learn how to surf...but I'll wait until I grow up.

[luvdamonkeex3]

oo i love volleyball!! i payed it for my skool last year buh this year my parents didnt lemme tryout cuz they said no one could give me a ride home ='[ everybody becomes so close to each other in a sports team ^^

[willywutang]

By far, the best sport I like to play is tennis. It is fun to play and it is also fun to watch. Other sports I like watching is college football and NBA basketball.

[atomik86]

i just like watching sports like college football, not so much pro football. thats more about entertainment value and not so much pride and recognition. baseball is fun to play but boring to watch, at least in my eyes. but what i like best is martial arts and thats the only sport i do. its fun to fight, and u look beastly while doing it hahahaha

[idiver]

hmmm..i do judo?it used to be a form of martial art but now seen only as a form of sport. i dunno why but i was just attracted to it the first time i saw it being demonstrated. and i enjoy every training session of it. i hope i can be one of the national players(i wud train really hard to achieve tt though i suck now) and move on to other forms of martial arts perhaps aikido?karate?taekwondo? fighting just seems to run in my blood =D

[Timmy]

basketball's the best^^
it's just so diao if you can show up some streetball-moves in front of your friends...just like Jay does in his new vid "hong mo fang"

but though i play table tenis much better because i was doing it since i was 6 years old

[rozmary]

I play Tennis and Badminton. I love tennis best because it gets you really going and the challenge of hitting the ball to the other side of the court really drives me to work really hard.

[jaypops]

I love sports too! Sweating it out just makes me happy!
I don't really do ball games like basketball or soccer because I used to be hit by them when I was young. Kind of freak me out. Haha.
The sport which I do most frequently is fencing. I absolutely love it. I am currently fencing epee but had fenced foil in the past before. Any fencers here?
Other sports I do are jogging and taekwondo. :D

[yongmunyee]

Ooh... I love sports!!
I love to run, swim, play basketball, play badminton and Taekwondo....

Haha..
Weird huh??

[bunstable]

cheerleading...a sport? bah...htat's like saying dancing is...! XP and walkin' is another form of sports... XD;
why aren't you allowed to play basketball? :(


Yup, cheerleading is a sport, an extreme sport to be more precise! A lot of cheerleaders died from stunts.
I, on my side, play badminton!

[alisadorsey@yahoo.co]

I post so much not sure if I posted in here, but here it goes.

I love to play Tennis, basketball, (soccer-not on purpose though with this on-usually my friends want to play and I just go along), and I like to run. I watch things like football sometimes. I will leave that for the guys to play.

[Qinghe]

I'm not really into sports, but I do play badminton for fun. Other than that, I like to watch sports such as: basketball, baseball, and soccer. Weightlifting is fun once in a while.

[DaeronX]
