Sports you play
 
What sports do you actively take part in? How high a level do you play at, or do you play just for fun? What is your favourite sport to play?

Personally, I love football (soccer). I wouldn't say I'm particularly good, but I tend to play with my mates at least once a week, as well as us being signed up to a weekly 6-a-side league run by the university. Our team kinda suck, we're 3rd bottom out of 12 teams after about 15 games and might have even fallen a place after the tables get updated for this Wednesday, but it's all pretty fun. It's pretty much the only sport I play these days and therefore naturally my favourite, although I occasionally go swimming (only recreationally though). Also used to enjoy tennis and somewhat cricket but I haven't played either for quite a while now.

I have played baseball since T-ball. That's around the age of five, and I have played ever since then. Right now, I play for the local travel Colt League team, as well as my JV high school team. I play first base, so there's always a lot of action. I'm a pretty good hitter, as well, and I bat fourth in the order. Such a relaxing game, really.

I also play a little bit of golf in the summer. My gradpa always takes me out, and he's a really good golfer. He was scratch, up until recently, and he still maintains a sub-10 handicap. It's always fun to play with him because he is so knowledgable, and can teach me a lot.

I actively played baseball from junior high until the end of highschool.When I came to the states for Uni, the fact that baseball is seasonal, really put a damper on wanting to get involved, so i just said fuck it.

I still practice Judo and go to meetings once a week and will be participating in a local competition in shizuoka city when i go back to japan for the summer.

I've played a little first base myself. Not on a team currently, but in the summer I try to organize as many pick-up games as possible.
I recently tried squash and was surprised at how fun it is. I'm usually not much for racquet sports, especially when you have to pay to use courts, but that's a damn entertaining game.

I played baseball for 7 years way back when. Played the outfield and 1st base one year. Then, a year before high school, I switched to hockey for two years playing defensemen. During HS, I played football, switching from TE, LB, to DE.

Hell, I play baseball in the spring (from March until July), in the fall (from September until November), and I practice and train most of the winter.

My main sport I play is tennis. Haven't gotten a chance to play much of it recently (since I live out in the middle of nowhere), but I'll jump at any chance I have to play. I was on my high school's varsity team, and I consider myself a decent player..still have alot to work on though =)

I also play golf every couple of months. It's supposed to be relaxing and fun, which it usually is, but since I have trouble hitting the ball up in the air sometimes, it can get frustrating. But I still enjoy it, since I always golf with friends or family.

When i was in HS, we played year-round and practiced from 3pm to 9pm everyday during the school days and on non-school days we practiced from 10 am till 9 pm. It is the reason japanese people are good at baseball, every school's baseball club dedicates their life to the sport.

Wow, I thought I played a lot. Now that is dedication.

During high school I played football as a left tackle. Had some of my best memories from high school playing my freshman year.

One of the best would have to be during my freshman year. We were really getting our ass's kicked bad, I mean really bad. The offensive line just wasn't getting it done at all. I was best friends with our QB at the time and I couldn't help but feel pretty bad as he had been put on his ass the last two plays in a row.

He took a really big hit and I can remember him jumping up and running back to the huddle covered in mud, with a big chunk of dirt sticking out from his helmet. He looked at his wrist band and got really wide eyed and said "I can't read this, somebody else call a play" I leaned over and called a running play on 3rd and god only knows. I just figured it was best to not kill the man. Despite our humiliating defeat I think that's the best story I have from my 4 years playing. Makes me laugh every time.

These days I really don't play many sports outside of pool and bowling.

YO PITTSBURGH MIKE HERE Mar 3, 2006 01:18 AM

Oh man I love pool. At my dad's house, we have a table where the dining room table should be, and I play all of the time. I got a nice MacGregor (I think. Something with a shamrock logo) and have been working on my game the last few months. It seems to be paying off quite nicely, too, as I can hustle a bit and have made over $100 in the last month from it.

Synthesis Mar 3, 2006 01:14 PM

When I was in high school I played soccer and basketball extensively, but now that I'm in college it's really difficult to juggle sports, as well as your major/emphasis courses. So I'm currently waiting until I get a semester of classes I can easily pass so I'll have enough extra time to devote myself to at least one of the two sports I play.

JackTheRipper Mar 3, 2006 03:00 PM

I used to play baseball. I wasn't too bad either. Now I run track, but my main focus is tennis. I've been playing for about 8 or 9 yearsand I'm going to hold one of the singles spots on the varisty team soon.

Fire On Ice Mar 3, 2006 03:15 PM

I play hockey. I play as a ceneter with two of my teams and both wing and defence with the other.. I was the Captain of my HS team all three years I played and I am now playing for my university. I also am part of a boys house league team and a women's shinney league, I referee and I used to coach, but it took up too much of my time. I love to wacth and cheer on my local NHL team, the Ottawa Senators (who are doing very well this season). I also play soccer whenever I get the opportunity and I tried to get into rugby a little while back but it never really caught on with me.

it may sound like I'm bragging and maybe I am a little but I'm allowed considering hockey is the only thing I actually can do well.

Rocca Mar 3, 2006 03:23 PM

Have been playing basketball in organized inter city leagues for the past 10 to 12 years. I've been coaching 8 to 10 year olds since I was 12 years old (just real mature is all), won 10 provincial championships, MVP of the year twice, always plays in the All-Star games (just charity games to put on a good show). It's fun. I play just about every other sport, but for the time being, basketball is the only one I love and can focus on. I also dunk like there's no tomorrow. :)

Musharraf Mar 3, 2006 03:28 PM

Football/soccer. I'm not particularly good either, but it's always for fun, right? I'd love to play rugby, but it's very unpopular in Germany. There are many homosexual people who play volleyball here, though!

Shinimegami Mar 3, 2006 03:33 PM

Soccer!!!

Ryuu Mar 3, 2006 07:28 PM

I'll shoot hoops on occasion with friends.

I love to play tennis and golf with friends as well, it's fun. I'll play soccer/football every so often, but I'm not as good as I use to be...

Little Brenty Brent Brent Mar 3, 2006 07:38 PM

I played soccer and baseball from when I was four until shortly after highschool, at which point I didn't really have the time to invest in them anymore and stopped playing more than recreationally. I was involved in track and field and cross-country running throughout those years as well.

I wrestled for quite a few years, but stopped earlier in highschool 'cause I started to get cramped for time with other extracurricular activities, like acting and student leadership classes.

I never played hockey competitively as a kid, but I did skate a lot and played recreationally with buds. The last couple years I got talked into playing roller hockey with them, and though it was alright I miss skating on ice so I'm going to try to get back into that this year, if I have the time.

Son of Wiseness Mar 3, 2006 08:01 PM

I'm on a team for Soccer. But I play basketball/football of my own free will. For baseball though I go to games and watch them on televison, just the White Sox though.

Tennis is my favorite sport, and I have been playing it for almost five years.
I only play singles because I suck in communicating with my partner, especially when he/she misses after a long rally; those mistakes make me want to smack him/her in the face with my raquest.

However, I enjoy almost all kinds of sports which includes no interaction of bodies. I just don't want to get hurt while playing sports.

dragonraver Mar 4, 2006 06:01 AM

I used to swim for my high school team, but the coach "corrected" my kick for breaststroke. Part way into that season, my knee was hurting pretty badly, so I stopped swimming for the team, and went to the doctor. From there, I was told to lay off competitve swimming for a while and so I'm just a rec. swimmer now, as I'm not supposed to push myself for competition swimming yet.

I also used to play badminton for the high school but since swimming and badminton were in the same season, I stopped playing competitively for swimming. I still play sometimes, but my knee's been bothering me.

I've only been playing Tennis for about two years. I'm not bad, though I'm not amazingly great either. I love playing doubles, I always find myself playing doubles more often than singles - I guess it's because you don't have to cover such a wider area by yourself and if something happens you can blame the other person lol.

I agree to your firts point, where in doubles, you don't have to move much as you will do in singles. But when you go to a state/sectional/national level, doubles becomes pretty difficult. So it really depends on the level you play, I guess.

In your second point, I will also play doubles if I can blame my partner. I don't play doubles because I CAN'T DO THAT!!!!!

Timberwolf Mar 5, 2006 08:06 PM

Basketball is my favourite sport to watch and to play. I love the game too much. I don't even need a hoop to enjoy basketball. If I have a bad day (or a good day), I can just take my ball, go somewhere, just dribble around and freestyle -- it always makes me feel better.

I also like track (sprints). There's nothing quite like powering your way down the track as fast as you can.
