    HearWa Ow, that hurt...

    I remember trying out for basketball once in middle school. I didn't make it. Tried again the next year to the same effect.

    ...

    That about sums up my sport career!

    Since I'm in better shape I'm thinking about joining rugby next summer. That is if it doesn't get in the way of my martial arts practice. :)

    With training 6/7 nights a week, and school 5 days a week I don't get much time to even think about doing another sport. So I guess I should excell at MA instead ;)

    1. I do fencing, cycling, track and field stuff, and ballet (though ballet isn't really a sport)

    2. I've done very well at fencing.

    3. gymnastics

    4. See above.

    5. None really, though I watch football or hockey from time to time, I generally would like to play as well.

    6. I'd say it's a toss-up between golf(though I don't consider it a sport.. no more than chess is a sport, except that chess has more action) and baseball..... no I was lying, golf by a long shot.

    It depends on what you consider sports. I boxed in the Navy but that is a martial art so I guess that doesn’t count. I have had other hobbies/sports. I raced motocross when I was young. I skydived for a while. I still scuba dive. I was into rock climbing for a while. I still hike when I can. I surfed for many years but quit due to the crowded conditions around here. I golf when I can get time. I hunted most of my life. I still fish now and then. I competed in target shooting. When I was young it was small-bore rifle then when I was older a few years of large-bore rifle. The only team sport I was in was baseball when I was younger.
