What sports do you play?
#1
I myself play quite a few sports, here they are:
Horse riding: Been doing it for 5 years, I absoloutly love, i'd also love to do Roman cavalry reenactment someday.

Golf: Just started playing again after not playing for about 6 months.

Snooker: been playing for a few months now, really enjoying it.

Cricket: been playing for nearly a year now, play for my local team.

Out of all of them i'd say the Riding is probably my favourite, and definately the one i'm best at, I also do it the most, atleast once a week, but over the past couple of weeks i've been riding about once every other day (because of the holidays).

I play a couple of sports:

My main sport, if you will, is martial arts, in particular Wado karate. Practical and fun at the same time.

Being a Canadian, hockey is a must Wink Street, pick up, or (most commonly) shinny.

Also play baseball and pool in lesser amounts.

I would like to learn how to ride a horse and golf. As a future accountant, the latter will prove rather....necessary :lol:

Currently, I play racquetball (great sport, btw), and golf, which I've been playing since I was like 12. I used to play football (the men's, er . . . I mean American kind) :wink: I do lots of other stuff that could be considered sports, but those are the 'ballgame' types.

I'd love to do horse riding, but I don't have land to keep any on, and my grandpa doesn't keep them any more.

Not have a local riding school? I don't have my own horse either, but i'd love one.

Sounds like you should get danger pay from the council!

I'm too skinny to play rugby" I've increasingly got the opposite problem!!

The first time i will make a fix course to drill the moves, later free running.

In my days as paratrooper i´ve enjoyed the obstacle course in full "armour" (with parachute, emergency parachute, biwak gear, assault rifle and 250 rounds ammo) - and is was a "painfull fun"! 8)

In my urnfield culture kit it would be easy! :wink:
