I'm doing Scuba diving and snorkling. Oh and cycling but that's more like my main means of transportation.

Hockey. Used to play netball until I had a knee reconstruction two years ago. I also used to play Aussie Rules when I was a teenager, but I was pretty crap.

Edit: Also used to play cricket, but it takes too much of the whole weekend.

More of a discipline but; Parkour

Also of course i; Kayak, mountain bike, rock climbing (indoor), swimming (occasionly, not pro), and probably some other stuff i dont mention as much.

Cricket is Awesome!

Paintball, downhill biking, skating and trouser ping-pong...

I do a lot of Hiking, play badminton occasionally etc.

Orientiering.

Football (the real one, not American version).

So would I, but for the time being I do the next best thing.

When did you start playing?

None.

Coach football (the real one, not what my US countrymen try to pass off as sport) and used to play. Also used to play baseball and basketball but gave them up to focus on football, and I played rugby till forced out by a back injury. Used to do gymnastics as well. I still occasionally play hockey and tennis, and I'm learning to play golf.

I think that's it...

Rugby and cricket are my big ones. Cricket especially. Hoping to make some rep teams this year.

These days the only sport I do is running, but that's really just to keep in shape so I don't think it counts. At various points in the past I've done gymnastics, soccer, swimming, showjumping/eventing and ultimate frisbee.

Rugby (Wharfedale RUFC under 16's, 17's and colts), Cross Country Running (Yorkshire and Horrogate representive), Football (keep for Craven area), Cricket (Threshfeild A and Wharfedale B), Fell Racing and Hiking.

Cricket. :D You would be surprised at the amount of cricketing activity going on in South Bay area, California.

I also play tennis and basketball.

every once and a while a pick up game of soccer(football)
i ride horses and my friend and i joust!!

thats about it
i some times play ultiment frisbe

Tonsil hockey

Used to play table tennis and fencing (foil and sabre) but gave those up to focus on my aforementioned true talent.

Fishing and Rifle Shooting.


Yes I class those as sports....

Bowling!

Paintball is about it for me right now. I used to bowl up until I had a knee injury a few years ago.

armchair rugby

I tackle armchairs all the time. :p

My most often played sports include:

Rugby, football and paintball. :)

Swimming, Figure skating. SHEBANG!

Football (soccer), though for me it's mostly stumbling about and wheezing.

im an active participator in the sport of bed wrestling.

I play soccer and cricket. Although I love both of these sports, I love rugby the most.

Lucky devil...

Well when you got the talent, don't be afraid to use it.

Im a rower competivly as well as that I run,cross country and track, comeptivly as well. Play football (or soccer) as well every couple weekends really. Thanks to the rowing trainning I spent most of my weeks feeling pretty stiff at the moment.

Ultimate (Frisbee) - My team won our league this year, and we had a blast playing. It is a fantastic sport.

Cycling - Not a sport, per se, but certainly a great way to get around.

Swimming - Again, not really a sport, but I love it anyway.

Now - nothing; my knees will allow me to swim, but I don't count that as a sport, it is an activity (unless you race which I don't).

In the past:Abseiling, Aikido, Archery, American Football (D Line) , Badminton, Baseball, Basketball, Bowling (10 pin) Cricket, Cycling (road), (Darts?!), Fencing (foil - lefty), Football (centre half), Judo, Rugby League, Rugby Union, Sailing, Skiing, (Snooker?!), Track and Field (decathalete - and I still detest running more than 400m)

I am not sure if Darts and Snooker count as sports. The level of athleticism required is almost negative.

I do Sycronised Swimming, and it is cool cause there is so much control it really builds up your flexibility and strenght. Not many people do that!!!:D

I do the biloafalon.

Sleep, daydream... sleep, daydream...

When did you start playing?

about 5 years ago.

im an active participator in the sport of bed weting.
Pfft,anyone can do that.

i used to do canoeing and tennis and occasionaly coastal traversing or 'coasteering' if you prefer. not really a sport but loads of fun. i don't really like competitive sports.

about 5 years ago.
Ahhh 2001 the year i could have started playing.

I play football (not to be confused with soccer)
It really sucks this year because the retarded coach started practice the first week of June and the first game isnt till September, so I decided not to play this year.

I almost never hear of any other fencers! Though I'm from the dark side, saber...
Fencing joke-
How does each kind of fencer help an old lady across a busy street?

The epeeist takes whatever she's holding and walks her all the way to her house, even if it's miles away.

The foilist looks both ways and says, "Ok, you can go, but hurry"

The saberist shoves her into the path of the oncoming traffic :p

Swimming twice a week.

La fleuret.

I used to do swimming a lot and basketball, but since i moved a few years back i don't really get the chance to go swimming very often and there's not really a team here that i can play with for basketball. I do fitness sometimes now and i cycle pretty much every day now too

Do you do any sports? I do fencing, and my favorite weapon is the epee. Football, Baseball, Basketball, Dodgeball, Debateball?I've joined the "dress up and get drunk" club (although they refer to themselves as a fencing club) here at uni.

Kickboxing.

I used to play proper hockey for Lisnagarvey, one of the top clubs in Ireland. Until about two years ago I was first choice right-wing for all the junior teams, and was usually the first name put down when they were picking the team. Also could play defensive midfield, centre midfield, left wing, and right or centre forward just as good as anyone else in the team, but right wing was my favourite.

(This is proper hockey:

I used to be a competitive swimmer. I've won many competitions and medals. Getting too old though now. I don't swim as much as I used to anymore. I just don't find it fun anymore.

I'd like to join the fencing club at the University I'm going to this month. Even though it is a sport for my ideological opponents the aristocracy, I've always wanted to fence. There's a part of me that wants to be a nobleman.

I suck at all sports

I've joined the "dress up and get drunk" club (although they refer to themselves as a fencing club) here at uni.

That's how fencing was at my uni as well.

However I eventually had to drop them in favor of horseback riding (western) and ultimate frisbee. After I graduated, I picked up martial arts as well, and still going strong.

I ride my bike, that has to suffice right now.

Other than that, does channel-surfing count as a sport? Nobody has got me beat yet :D

Hillwalking, alpine and expedition climbing, mountain biking. (especially downhill for a good, healthy and legal rush)

I also like kayakking, but i don't have a kayak. I do have the gear needed for above.

I suck at traditional team sports.

Battlefront 2?

Battlefront rocks!
though battlefront 2 sucks

Water Sports :p

Baseball(!!!!!!), American street football, and football (soccer). I also am a referee for an under-10 football (soccer) league, which is fun.

Cricket YAY (Batting Avearge of 19.17, bowling ave of 24.50) Tennis, Football and i like watching rugby the best

Cross Country!
and track, but i hate track.

No, I don't unless juggling is considered a sport. I do cycle everywhere though.

I'm really bad at most sports, except for shuffleboard. I won third place in the high school division of the shuffleboard competition at my state's Latin Forum. Maybe it was beginner's luck, because I had just learned how to play it earlier that day.

In Soviet Union....sports do YOU.

Sorry...I couldnt help it...

No.
