What sport did you play in school

What sport/s did you use to play in school? I’m curious!

I was on the volleyball team (basically an all girl

Team) for 2 years when I was 8 and It was amazing!!

And then I did take up some swimming lessons when I was 11-12 for a year… pushed by my dad.

Then I started HATING sports and every excuse was valid not to play sports in school. If I had to, I preferred to play sports like badminton with the girls …or even better, do nothing.

Running was a bit compulsory during PE classes but I HATED it. With passion..

What about u?

Amazing!!!

Love that Courtney was also in the marching band!

I gave up sports and dedicated my teenage years to the piano and did 5 years of music school on top to learn classical music

Sport was half a day, four days a week of my school life. I loved all sports except cross country, where I learnt all the shortcuts available and came in second to last every time, suitably muddy. Captain of rounders, hockey & netball, champ for my year at long jump, high jump, hurdles and 100m sprint.

Basketball, for entirely obvious reasons.

First year I played, we finished last, and won only a single game.

Each year we finished a little higher, until the last two years I was in school we won the league twice back-to-back, and lost only a single game.

We were the smallest team in the league – squad of six, rather than ten.

We were also – apart from me – probably the shortest team in the league.

City

Forgot outside school I did a bunch of martial arts. I had a wall full of trophies and was able to do mad stuff like the splits, and do jumping spinning heel kicks to the head during actual competition fights.

Anyway I had stopped doing it for a while cause moved house and needed to find a new club and found it hard. Went away for a few weeks and came back and my mum had thrown my wall of trophies out. Asked her why she did it, she said they give everyone a trophey and it's time to grow up. Told her they don't they only gave first, second and third place a trophey and 90% of mine were first place.

Ah well.

I wore shinguards. nah but if you were good you got a lot of that, run toward them and they wwing their stick at you, go out of their way to hit you with the stick etc. I played when you didn't need a helmet too, so the odd scumbag would try take your head off.

Netball....I was cajoled into it by a pushy PE teacher and a Dad who believed a Child should play at least one type of sport. I only agreed to it to appease the Paternal Parental figure

I was good though and towered over everyone so height was an advantage

no

I used to play football, I loved playing and I was good at tackling and now I’m shit a playing so I just leave it to the professionals. Used to love swimming as well could swim for days but now laziness has taken a hold of me
