Are you engaged with some sports? What sport do you know? What sport would you like to play if given the chance? And what sports do you watch on tv?
My favorite sport is swimming, I just love the waters. I know all four strokes and if given the time, i would like to swim if not everyday at least once a week. My favorite sports that i can't play are baseball and tennis. I love watching major league and the tennis tournaments on tv. I love Derek Jeter and Andre Agassi (too bad he's retired).
And if there's one sport that i would like to play if given the chance, it would be surfing (does it show how much i love the waters?) and also football. But i'm scared with playing football because it's contact sport and i might get hurt and it's for men only.
What about you? What sport do you like?

I'm a sport-oriented guy. I play basketball, badminton, chess, bowling. The one sport that I would love to try though is American football. I love contact sports. The sound of bodies crushing into each other is music to my ears.

Here in the Philippines, basketball is the major sport. I love watching basketball, I cant even make a single shot with the granny-style. Tabletennis has always been my sport. things I like about it: total fat-burning, no heat exposure, and lastly so what, if you got hit by a ball? :D

Here in Spain, as in many other european countries, we are fans of soccer. I used to play it, as a goalie, and people said I used to be quite good.... then I decided I wanted to live the other side, so I began to act as a referee... but then I discovered people live soccer in a very intense way, so my mum got fed up of being referred, and after I had a problem in my knee I decided to quit. Nowadays, I don't support soccer that much, since I got a little fed up with it, and since Spain sucks in soccer lastly, I prefer to follow F1. It's likely to be one of the few sports nobody gets insulted...

I was always active in many sports while I was young mainly soccer, rugby, athletics and cricket to name a few. But as I got older I concentrated on soccer though have now stopped playing that since and injury last year but I have been coaching for the last few years.
I do enjoy watching most sports on TV but again soccer is always my favourite to watch.

I like Cricket And If given a chance I would love to play. I know everything about it and every technique. I watch it on the television too. It is a game which can turn either side in the wink of an eye.

I play basketball, pool, pingpong and darts. I wish hockey was also famous here and american football too. These two sports are what I crave for, there are hockey players here but are only a few. And playing it would be costly, since you have to buy for your own gears and protective vests. As for american football, I don't know a place where they held it or whether it's available here.
So I just try to stick on sports that I can play and enjoy along..

One of my favourite sports is swimming. There is nothing like a good swim to relieve everyday tensions and to relax your body. One of my favourite swimming strokes is freestyle. I also like to do the butterfly but find it a bit hard. I am also a pretty good vollyball and basketball player, but swimming is still my favourite sport.

And I think that football is not only for men, women can play and have women that play football better than a lot of men. For example, my sister!!! :D

I had tried to play volleyball. I was a former volleyball player. I am also a taekwondo with a blue belt. I wanted to try other kinds of martial arts. I am also a swimmer but I hate butterfly; it is very tiring stroke. I wanted to try tennis, surfing, golf... actually, I wanted to try almost all of the sports because I am a very sports minded person. But for now, I wanted to pursue being a racer, I love cars and I love the speed when you race... I also love designing cars... everything about cars...
