Yeah, I tried out for the varsity team when I was a junior, but my height limited me, so they reluctantly put me on JV. And then my friend and I quit about halfway through the season due to limited playing time.

But our varsity team was pretty good if I remember correctly. (My school had a lot of black people)

High school: Lacrosse (varsity for 4 years), field hockey, swim/dive
College: Lacrosse (club)

Recreationally, I still play lacrosse from time to time and am joining a coed soccer league with some friends for fun even though I'm not very good at soccer.

Oh yeah! How could I forget my swim team days!

I excelled in the breast stroke, butterfly sucked.

There aren't many in Phoenix, but as long as the Coyotes are here, there are a few.

Football, tennis, golf, and squash/racketball. Squash is my fave.

Golf is more of a game than sport, it is more leisurely so I enjoy it the most but it isnt a work out or something.

Boxing and martial arts then. In particular pencak silat (the shit they fight in The Raid Redemption) and kickboxing.

I never got lax. It's such a silly sport to me. We had the best high school lax team in the state and I always fell asleep during the games.


Always been my favorite sport to play. It's admittedly not all that exciting to watch.

I played lax in high school. ATTACK!

How can you not enjoy playing lacrosse? It was awesome. Granted, I preferred football GAMES. But lax practice was always fun. Football practice was 90% standing around, telling the youngsters what to do until I was asked to go deep. Lacrosse never got old.

I wish I had run track, though. I am a very fast sprinter and greatly enjoy doing it. Lacrosse didn't allow for many chances to get to full speed. Just basic sprints might sound boring, but I enjoy the feeling of being at full speed. I was the fastest guy in my HS and would have killed it in the 100m dash, but I wasted my talent being OK/slightly above average at lacrosse.

Lacrosse also made me break my FEMUR in my leg. Worst injury ever. Helmet straight to the mid thigh - SNAP! :pinch: :pinch:

Oh and Rugby/FOOTY :thumbsup: :thumbsup: is very fun, too.

Soccer, hockey, lax - they're all boring to watch. Basketball is the only non stop sport that is fun to watch, and that is primarily due to the ridiculous athleticism on display.

Football, basketball, and golf are the only sports I will call friends over and get crunk to.

I am in the beginnings of boxing (mainly doing it to imrpove the boxing part in kickboxing), but kickboxing and pencak silat, I am already pretty solid at. If I shouöld ever find the time (which looks unlikely in near future), I'd like to add krav maga to my repertoire.

I'm kinda looking forward to making a fool out of myself in the soccer league. I've played soccer before but I'm just not that good at it for whatever reason. I'm playing with three of my guy friends who are REALLY REALLY GOOD too. Like, they all played in college on really good teams. derp.

Time to dig.

thats intense. how hard is the training?


Hard, though getting better. Pencak silat is surprisingly not that exhausting, but difficult 8especially fighting with sticks), but kickboxing really wears me out. When I started back in 2011, I discovered all kinds of pain I didn't know before. The constant rope jumping was killing me. Now I can get up to 300-400 jumps at once before my legs start giving away. At the end, boxing and kickboxing is more a sport than anything (many many rules, do's and don't's and lots and lots of technique), wheras pencak silat is the one to use if you actually are in a dangerous situation. The main goal there is to kick ass if you have to.

Organized: Baseball (Elementary School through High School) and Roller Hockey (Elementary and Middle School years).
Recreational: Inline Skating, Street Hockey

I still skate sometimes. I'd be at the roller skating rink 4 or 5 nights a week from age... 7 to 16. All-night skates at the end of each month, how I miss those.

Used to play football in junior school, and for a local team at the weekens. That stopped as I became more interested in education than in sports. Then I've learned Judo and Taekwondo for many months at different times in my life. Other than that, I used to play tennis with my dad....and I am briliant at pool. And I was always the best/fastest/strongest swimmer at my school.
