Simple enough

When You Were At School, What Was Your Sport / Hobby.

Mines was School football although I played for my School at Rugby. I also loved chess but because I was with the School football and rugby it classed with Chess times so never got into it at school as much.

So folks, what was your sport/hobby at school

Central Borders

Anything outdoors. I was usually found somewhere up a tree, or in a field looking for ancient pottery type things (which i now know farmers deliberately put in there for the ground to soak up water better, but then i was only 7, so not quite aware of these things...)

Primary School it was football. Secondary School was rugby which I liked as you could assault people and call it “sport”

Sports wise it was netball, rhythmic gymnastics and trampoline (until the boobs grew in). I was also heavily involved with the schools outdoor pursuits activities so lots of orienteering, abseiling and rock climbing.

I was also a total swot so did choir, Young Enterprise, prefect and always in the school plays.

Looking back I was a busy bee

Rugby, squash, badminton, basketball, lacrosse and chess, I learned to play chess due to not being allowed into the school at break times during the winter, my pals and I had the great idea of joining the chess club as you were allowed into the cosy warm classroom to play at lunchtime

Oooft hurling makes rugby look like tiddlywinks! Do you still have all your own teeth? Tried a bit of Aussie Rules when I lived in Australia, thats a hard game but again in comparison to hurling.....bit of a pussy sport

In all my years of playing rugby and football I never once picked up a serious facial injury. 2 years of playing Aussie Rules - 1 fractured eye socket, 2 major concussions requiring hospital treatment, torn rotator cuff (ouch) and a hairline fracture of the forearm. Still wouldnt play hurling though....amazing to watch mind you!

Up till I had my daughter in 96, I played 5s on my then husband's team. After we divorced, I still had the odd game and still did different sports (badminton mainly). Unfortunately 3 years ago I was diagnosed with MS and had 3 strokes, so the choice was taken from me rather than giving it up x

Rugby at primary and secondary school, which continued well into adulthood before then coaching it.

Running, hill walking, orienteering, all still to this day when possible.

Chess has been a lifetime hobby but still not too great, too impulsive when I play.

The cadets lead to doing it for real.

Was busy then, and apparently still am!
